I know this is highly irregular... but this is actually what I am trying to do, you understood correctly...
I have a computer running Ubuntu 11.04 which does not recognize my earphones, and I cannot get to any other headphones at this time. I want to, if possible, use the USB-to-iPhone tether to connect my iPhone to the computer and then plug my earphones into that and use the iPhone to hear the sounds output from the computer.
So kind of like the earphones were plugged directly into the computer, but not.
Is this possible?

Paul over 12 yearsRather than pushing this over USB, would an acceptable alternative be to stream PC audio to the iphone over wifi?

Sam over 12 yearsPaul's solution would work. Why are you trying to do this? The only reason I can think of is if your sound card is not working, so Paul's solution would work.

FALL3N over 12 yearsYes to both. Yes that is my problem and yes that is a much better/easier/less complicated solution, I don't know why I didn't think of that... but remember, (not sure if this will change anything) I am using linux, not a mac
