Does Samsung S21 support Type C earphones?

Got a new S21 Ultra a few days ago, and I am noticing some odd behaviour with my USB C headset.

The headphones seem to work fine with calls.

With media/apps - Often with the headphone plugged in, the audio comes out the phone's main speaker. Disconnecting the usb c and reconnecting it usually forces the audio to switch to the headset.

However, if I pause video/audio for more than a few seconds or switch apps the audio jumps back to the main speaker.

I do get an android notification saying "USB device not recognised" when it stops working.

Buy any USB c to 3.5 mm adapter that has built-in DAC. It will work.

One plus c type won't work because they don't have built-in DAC. For S21, an adapter or USB c headset with DAC is needed since the phone does not have one.
