The problem is, the manufacturers will not be able to follow suit with thunderbolt. So... what will device makers use? The BIG problem is they will likely not even use the same "standard" across Android devices... what is a headphones manufacturer to do?

USB Type-C has provisions for putting audio directly onto auxiliary pins exactly for this purpose. However, I suspect most won't get rid of the standard audio jack without a good reason.
