>This is how passive USB-C to 3.5mm audio dongles work

From what I've read, this isn't exactly reliable. Maybe we can blame the device IC, but it gives me Bluetooth vibes where everyone blames each other.

Anyway, happy to see there is demand for it. I'll still be optimistic.

It's been perfectly reliable on the devices I've constructed.

I suppose the main issue is the physical construction of the dongle itself - I've had reliability issues with 3.5mm cables for as long as I can remember, but I wouldn't exactly call disintegrating cables "bluetooth vibes".
