I love my ROG 5 and its audio capabilities. Could we use it as an external DAC/AMP? (suggestion)

Please tell us some basic information before asking for help:
Model Name: ROG Phone 5 128GB (base model)
Firmware Version: WW-31.0810.1226.91
Rooted or not: Not rooted, all stock
Frequency of Occurrence: No bugs
APP Name & APP Version (If your issue relates to the app): Hope to get one soon!
In addition to information above, please also provide as much details as you can, e.g., using scenario, what troubleshooting you've already done, screenshot, etc.
========================================
I feel like this is one of those "why no one thought of this before" moments where I'll soon find out that it's not that simple.
Regardless, I wanted mention it anyway. While I don't game on the phone that much, the audio this thing can output never ceases to amaze me. I pair it with a Sony WH-1000XM3 + Wavelet response correction + personal EQ tuned to my V-shaped EQ tastes.
It would be awesome if I could plug the phone in other devices like TV, PC, and console to passthrough audio via the USB port and output to my headphones, just like DAC/AMP devices you can buy. If such thing is possible, it would certainly add much value to the phone's capabilities.
Also, let me know in case that was already possible and I just didn't know about it.
Thanks in advance!
