USB-C has an analog audio output mode (audio adapter accessory mode which uses the device's internal DAC), so you won't have to do that. There will eventually be passive USB-C→3.5mm cables for use with analog-only headphones.

Do you have a link for this? I've never heard of it but it sounds cool.

  Here's a screenshot of part of the relevant section from the USB-C spec: https://i.imgur.com/y6xCS9u.png https://i.imgur.com/y6xCS9u.png

    > The headset shall not use a USB Type-C plug to replace the 3,5mm plug. So, the only sane way to connect an analog headset to a mobile phone is forbidden by the spec... Assuming I had a phone with a Analog-Audio-USB-Type-C capable, I'd like to have a headset that directly plugs in, and for which I don't have to purchase, carry, and loose a separate adapter.

      So attach the adapter and then pretend it's part of the wire for the lifetime of the device.
