Wired headphones w/ inline volume controls - sbszine - 2026-01-16

I've got a set of wired headphones with volume controls on the cable, but when I press those controls they don't adjust Tangara's volume. Is that a hardware limitation of the minijack receptacle used by the Tangara hardware, or is it something that could in theory be added as a feature in firmware later on?

This is a hardware limitation, yeah.

Behold my dodgy solution! Also handy if you want to use Tangara as a video game soundtrack but still get the ingame sound effects.
