DetailsDescription: Pulseaudio often crashes on login (if the headset is plugged) or when a sound is played. The only way to be able to click outside the active window is to unplug the headset.
Same bug as these: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/1080882 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1007575 Apparently the volume control keys on this headset are interpreted as a keyboard which causes the bug. This seems to be the fix: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=929578ab0339fe42bb3ceeaa2e6607189cddf70b I don't know how to apply it in order to test it though.

Applying the patch which is already in the kernel isn't going to do anything but fail to apply.
I'm not sure how to use it, I did "sudo rmmod usbhid && sudo modprobe usbhid quirks=0x04ca:0x004d:0x04,0x04f2:0x1061:0x04" but the headset still configures as mouse and keyboard. Is that expected? Should I do it before or after plugging the headset?
«after extended periods of use, the sound and microphone input will seemingly slow down- i.e. voices become deeper and slower; and then will regain normal speed, but the sounds and voices will become metallic and high, and I can't really describe it past "Robotic".»
«The problem can currently be resolved by unplugging and plugging them back in, but this, obviously, is a nuisance and causes me to have to reopen all programs.»

[ 12.573] (--) evdev: Creative Technology Creative USB Headset: Vendor 0x41e Product 0x400
So the module option should actually be "quirks=0x041e:0x0400".
This probably needs attention in the kernel if you want this to be properly fixed (and the quirk works)
