Welcome to LinuxQuestions.

I didn't find much technical information about the wireless but typically it just an analog RF signal that just happens to be on the 2.4GHz because it does not require a license. In this case wireless does not mean a wifi network so there isn't a mac or ip address etc.

Many wireless keyboards and mice also use RF wireless.

No. wifi network and the headset wireless signals are not compatible.

it seems to be a basic rf-transceiver.

i suspect the wifi radio circuitry to be full-duplex (or at least half-duplex) therefore it wont receive anything from the headfones. (although the headfones mite get some interference from whats being transmitted from the wifi router).
