Yes, I have tried it and it works just about as bad as the yamaha electronics. The problem is NOISE, and lots of it. I am currently in the process of designing a low noise preamp/headphone amp/line driver for the silent brass tuba mute. I hope to have a prototype soon for testing by interested parties. That being said, you might get usable performance with some really efficent headphones.
