I have a question about audio devices that you plug into the USB port versus plugging into the regular speaker/microphone jack.

I read somewhere that when plugging your audio devices into a USB port versus the regular speaker/microphone jacks, that your soundcard is bypassed and that there's a separate driver that processes the audio. Is this true or can someone explain to me how this works? Is there a posting somewhere that relates to this?
 
I really don't know how it works. I have four computers two with sound cards and a usb head phone. The head phones work with the two that don't have sound cards and don't work with the two that have sound cards. I was reading a thread on here a while back and I think it was about sound cards and on board sound and someone said it would be wasted money to buy a usb head phone and use a sound card.
