USB Type-C to 3.5 mm Dongle Sound Quality Issues - Solved

I purchased a Mate 20 Pro recently and my biggest hesitation was the lack of headphone jack.

Upon receiving I was sorely disappointed by the audio quality from the bundled dongle, made my quality headphones sound cheap and on top of that the max volume was drounded out duing my commute. I am still very reluctant to move to wireless due to poor battery life and on top of that very few models that charge via USB Type-C.
