I don't expect Roku to ever bring the remote headset jack back. One reason is cost, as it requires a complete audio amplifier to be added to the remote, which adds expense. The other is battery life. People complained loudly when they used the headphone jack and found they needed to replace the batteries every few days. What most didn't realize that if they didn't unplug the headphones the audio amp remained powered up, which zapped the batteries quickly. If the headphones were unplugged when not used, then battery life was better but still reduced from what was the past normal lifespan. So instead Roku is now adding Bluetooth support to their latest players. The newest Ultra is the first, but I expect new releases to include it as well. Using Bluetooth is a far better choice, as you can have more than one connection and the audio quality in many cases will be better.
