What's the purpose of this dongle??

It's a digital to analog audio convertor for USB it looks like.

If it also does analog to digital this might make sense as a way to verify sound output.

I.e. debug a program that uses the headphone jack, or workaround software loopback device limitations.

Given the white body, it could be a USB cable for one of the early iPod shuffles?

It is exactly that. Really simple cable too. All of the apple 3.5mms are 4 pole (I think for play/pause, track seek capability) so it’s just a USB connector in a different form factor.
