Partyline: Can the RS-601 Auxilliary HS connector support a "Listen Only" earbud?

Question:  I have a question regarding the auxiliary headset jack. Can this be used as an earphone only jack? I have an audio guy who needs to wear headsets to monitor his audio mix but he also needs to hear the com channel. I was thinking he could put an earbud in his can for monitoring PL is this jack can feed an earbud.

Answer:  Clear-Com designed the auxiliary headset connector, labeled “AUX,” for use with the CC-25 Ultra-Light headset. The beltpack’s circuitry is designed to work with the CC-25 headset to produce excellent quality sound.
While certain types of mobile-phone style headsets will fit the 2.5 mm AUX jack, using these headsets may degrade system performance. You can use such mobile-phone style headsets more reliably with listen-only applications.
By default, the AUX connector provides bias voltage for electret microphones. With V-Pack, you can also program this connector for use with dynamic microphones.
Note: Using multiple mobile-phone style headsets in a system could adversely affect nulling, crosstalk, and overall system performance.
