On my MacBook and MacPro if I plugged in my headphones (Astro A40) to the headphone socket they would be listed as an External Microphone in the Input section under Sound/System Preferences.
I could then use them for Skype calls and other things. I'm trying to work out if its possible for a Hackintosh. I tried the VoodooHDA and it kinda worked but the quality was terrible.
I've got now an ALC898 kext and it works perfect for everything apart from offering external mic support.
I also had it working using both the mic and audio inputs on the tower but doing so doesn't offer ambient noise reduction and its something which I need since I'll be using the mic for live content.
