I agree with Pierre that SND_JACK_HEADPHONE is too specific in this 
case, adding SND_JACK_USB sounds like good solution, as there are more 
device types than headset and headphones. Alternatively you could also 
consider defining some type of USB Audio Class mapping to existing 
SND_JACK types. (Look for UAC_INPUT_TERMINAL_*, UAC_OUTPUT_TERMINAL_* & 
UAC_BIDIR_TERMINAL_*.)
