So my Lenovo Tab P11 Plus (1st) uses USB2.0 in USB-C format. That explains why none of my USB-C 3.0 hub works on the thing. Now the problem is I'm having problem locating a USB to Audio Jack with charging mini hub. There are plenty of those for USB-C 3.0 but so far no luck for USB-C 2.0 or even USB-A 2.0 (I can use an adapter). Anyone in the community would be familiar with this kind of peripheral? I could use BT on headphone on my device but I doubt it will last 15 hours.

Sigh, probably last update on this quest. Found a USB-C 2.0 OTG cable on Amazon that could split into USB-A and USB-C but all of them warn it will not do audio. I can't be sure if a DAC chipped adapter would even work after some of the online material so I'm not going to spend $30 for the experiment.
 
Just had a look around.
USB C 2.0 is such a strange choice... and I think youre screwed. Didn't look too far into it, but Im not certain 2.0 has any PD back charging capabilities when using a hub or dock? Doesn't seem like it anyways.

My suggestion would be to use a USB C to A adapter, and then connect it to an older, powered, USB 2.0 hub. It wont be able to charge your tablet though, and I cant seem to find any way around that.

It's the bidirectional handshaking of USB-C 3.x you really need, and dont have. Power delivery through a USB C dock to charge the tablet while at the same time giving you more ports for your peripherals.

All I can really suggest is get a multi output usb charger, and use two cables from it? One to charge the tablet and the other your headphones? Sorry it's not much help
