[Bug 1521337] Re: Add support for wired audio headset controls

 

Last I checked we were not getting any input events for the volume
buttons on the headset I tried, wonder if that's because of the
incompatible impedance values. Otherwise whatever else converts the
hardware events to input events needs adapting.

Title:
  Add support for wired audio headset controls

Status in Canonical System Image:
  Confirmed
Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Most phones support remote controls built into wired audio headsets.
  There seem to be various types on the market offering between one and
  four function buttons, I for example have a pair of three-function
  Sennheiser CX2.00G earbuds.

  Google released a specification as part of its Android project
  (https://source.android.com/devices/accessories/headset/specification.html),
  but according to some source it is incompatible with older devices
  because different resistor values are being used.
