Verified compatibility answer

Can Switch 2 Pro Controller use USB-C and a wired headset?

Yes. Nintendo lists USB-C for charging/wired connection and a 3.5 mm CTIA four-pole stereo mini jack on the Switch 2 Pro Controller, in addition to Bluetooth wireless communication.

Why this answer matters

Controller input, USB connection and headset audio are separate paths. A controller can work over Bluetooth while a headset-jack or USB path has its own fault.
