    Cannot get S9+ to use USB OTG microphone w/headset for calls--worked on my LG V6

    iRig works well for me, but callers often complain of interference if the wires are close together, and it is a cumbersome setup. Deskmate is too quiet--not enough voltage from the phone. I wish Samsung would fix this bull****!!!

    I work from home and use an AudioTechnica USB microphone for calls. It has a headphone "monitor" jack for my Superlux HD6688B headphones. This is a great setup.
