What's the purpose of this dongle??
- iPod Shuffle charger?
- It's a digital to analog audio convertor for USB it looks like.
  
  If it also does analog to digital this might make sense as a way to verify sound output.
  
  I.e. debug a program that uses the headphone jack, or workaround software loopback device limitations.
  
  Given the white body, it could be a USB cable for one of the early iPod shuffles?
  
  They exist, it seems. Actually, there might be a niche use case for audio editing or getting around some kind of software limitation. I have probably done worse in my day.
- Sound output from USB to a device with an aux port, or sound input from a camera or microphone or other device with a 3.5 mm output (headphone jack)
  
  It’s incredibly short though.
I CAN HEAR THROUGH TIME
I've been wanting to do this with my powebank which has both USB A and C ports
