That headset is for the observer only. It is a DC. I found out I needed a headset a few days before IOE and emailed a CP if I could just use that one - the answer was no as it is req equipment for the observer station only - the CP let me borrow one until mine came in the mail. But you are correct there is one in the airplane.
