Works with Linux, so I am assuming/hoping it will work with Android.

This applies to stock Android devices:
Just because Linux is supported doesn't mean Android will allow it, despite the foundation of Android being Linux based. Google has to do their part, 99% of the 100% needed, to making it work.
Of course, that's really jumping the gun. Why? Because USB audio has been an all too pathetic joke with Google/Android. For some devices, Nvidia is also part of the problem just less so.
Google said that Android 3.1 had USB audio capability -- no delivery. Then, Android 3.2 was supposed to bring it -- nothing brought. But wait, all of the internet bitchin' would surely solidify a Google commitment to give its users what has been missing from the start in the new Android 4.0 -- sorry, no dice. And now, with Android 4.1 to be released so very soon, one should expect Google to show some balls and do what's right? Better take a deep breath.
Just don't hold it.
Methinks as long as Google let's the movie studios and record labels have their say, the end user will be on the swallowing end of this suckage.

Interesting. The last I checked USB audio information for Android was in late June (figures). Just hope it's not limited to Android 4.1 and up.
The video mentioned that they have an app for legacy devices. I take this to mean that USB audio should be available on Honeycomb (Android 3.x) devices as well. The app was not available at the Google event.
But again, if the app won't enable USB audio from pre-Jellybean devices, Google needs to step up and get updates to at least Android 3.x devices (the last year of tablets) to allow for USB audio. That also puts a demand on manufacturers to do the same.
