The Corsair HS70 Wireless Headset & Linux

While researching a good wireless headset, I found things uncertain in Linux land: everyone advertises their Windows compatibility and special audio software, but would the hardware work on at least a basic level outside of Windows? What would you miss out on? This is the plight of a Linux gamer. Though not all hardware may be a good fit, if you have that fancy mouse or keyboard there’s community projects like libratbag and ckb-next to help you get set up, if your device is supported. If not, a lot of peripherals’ basic functionality should “Just Work” on modern kernels. But this information, of what works (fully, or not), is scattered and sometimes you just need to guess. I was in luck: the popular and well-regarded Corsair HS70 Pro I ended up buying is both very good and works without fuss.
