Audio from USB Host

I have looked around and see no evidence that there is code existing to do USB audio through the USB host port today.

I have built a USB band decoder for a new microwave capable radio (the new ICOM IC-905) with multiple USB devices, 2 serial ports and 1 audio. On boot up I inventory the hardware device info and see the radio's Burr Brown audio codec. Of course this all works on a PC but I want the PC to be optional :).

I have the serial ports part all working, can pass through data between the radio and a PC, picking off the CAT control info like frequency needed to control IO pins and switch hardware (antennas, amplifiers, etc). The last part is passing though audio. Looks like I have to use analog audio for speaker and mic as a workaround.

Has anyone found USB Host audio or started working on it? Don't think missed seeing it.
 
There were several mentions and it was on a user "wish list", but i'm not aware of anyone working on it.
 
The USB host code is missing support for isochronous transfers, which is typically required for transferring time-sensitive data like audio.
