• a gaming headset that receives audio channels that convey game audio signals during play of a game and a chat audio channel that conveys chat audio signals, wherein said gaming headset comprises an integrated analog voiceband modem operable to:
• modulate non-chat data onto a first voiceband signal for communication over said chat audio channel;
• and
• transmit said first voiceband signal modulated by the data on said chat audio channel that conveys said chat audio signals.

A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon, a computer program having at least one code section that is executable by circuitry of a gaming headset for causing the gaming headset to perform steps comprising:

• modulating non-chat data onto a first voiceband signal for communication over a chat audio channel, wherein:
• said gaming headset receives game audio channels that convey game audio signals during play of a game and a chat audio channel that conveys chat audio signals;
• and
• said gaming headset comprises an integrated analog voiceband modem;
• transmitting, by said analog voiceband modem, said first voiceband signal modulated by said data on said chat audio channel that conveys said chat audio signals.
