By "input" and "output" you mean exactly what ? The inputs of a soundcard usually have two controls: one to control the mixing in the master sound output, and one to control the mixing while capturing. The first one allows for signal loopback of the input to the output (in your case when you are hearing your own voice) while the second is what gets captured by the applications. In alsamixer the first one is in the playback control screen, while the second in the capture screen - press Tab to cycle the various screens.
Nevertheless, I want to use the headset with my sip softphone. Unfortunately when I move the input or otput mixer up and down it only affects my side, it gets louder and silent in the speakers, but on the other side i am still hearable. I also can mute the microphone and the other side of the call is still able to listen to me.
It sounds to me as if you are changing the Mic playback controls, but not the capture ones.
Another thing is, not so much important: along the USB cable, where the sound card is in, there is a + and - button for louder and silent, and a third button with a headphones, These three do not work. The only button is that works is the one to mute the microphone.
These buttons might show up as a USB HID device... or not...
the headset when on the phone. So is there anything that can be done to make it work?
Verify that you are changing the capture controls. I have no better idea than this, for now...
