hehe!  I ended up tinkering a lot before I found the way to direct audio 
to my USB headset using padevchooser point and click!

Guess the GUI can be more intuitive but for me, when I think about it, 
I'm used to historically dig down into the config files etc to get 
things working in the linux world. I was poking around low level rather 
then looking at the obvious place in the proper Pulse Audio GUI. The 
Pulse audio framework simply offers a level of convenience that 
historically has not been available in the Linux world.
