Why would you quote an edited portion of the rule?  Actually, the rule says
this:

  (c) You may not attach any antenna, power amplifier, or other apparatus
   to an FRS unit that has not been FCC certified as part of that FRS
   unit. There are no exceptions to this rule and attaching any such
   apparatus to a FRS unit cancels the FCC certification and voids
   everyone's authority to operate the unit in the FRS.

Assuming that the headset is 'FCC certified as part of that FRS unit', there
appears to be no violation.
