Mac OS X 10.4.4 broke sound output to my USB headset


After installing the latest Apple updates to Mac OS X, sound output to my Plantronics DSP 300 Digital USB headset no longer works reliably.

Just after rebooting my iMac G5, sound output to the headset works briefly and then abruptly stops. I can just be listening to music from iTunes or watching a DVD with DVD Player (and doing nothing else) and the sound will suddenly disappear. Switching sound output to the internal speakers restores the sound. I removed 3rd party sound utilities that might have conflicted with the new system, but that didn't help.
