I frequently use a wired earphone headset that has a built-in microphone with the Pinephone since otherwise it can be difficult to hear in a noisy environment.
The only issue I've found is that for the microphone to work you need to plug the headset in while the first call is in progress. (If you plug it in before the first call, the microphone does not work. Not sure why. It's kind of bizarre.) After this is done with the initial call it seems to work OK for subsequent calls as long as the headset stays plugged in. I don't have my keyboard yet but suspect that this will be the best way to use the phone+keyboard combo.
Hopefully at some point we'll have bluetooth audio working for calls.
