You need a special adapter, as mentioned on
http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Getting_Started_with_your_Neo_FreeRunner#Buttons_and_connectors
|The phone jack is a 2.5mm connector with four contacts: stereo +
|MIC. It is compatible with the headsets used by Motorola smartphones
|(A780,A1200, ...) and the V-360.
|
|To plug regular (i.e. without microphone) headphones commonly used
|to listen to music, a compatible 2.5mm 4 rings jack to 3.5mm stereo
|jack adapter is needed. It has been reported that Nokia's 2.5mm ->
|3.5mm adapters do not work, but that a 3.5mm Stereo Audio Adapter
|for Motorola MPx200/E398 works well.
