The card in this system is a Creative Sound Blaster Audigy FX (PCIe 1x). Outputs on the back are: Line In, Microphone In, Front Out/Headphone Out, Rear Out and Center/Subwoofer.
The other system has a Creative Sound Blaster Live! 5.1 (legacy PCI). Per the user guide, it has: Digital Out, Front Line Out, Rear Line Out, Microphone and Headphone.
The jacks on both cards are all 3.5mm, the headphones are USB.
Test results: same on both, volume does not change on either system when the inline volume control is used.
One difference on the other system (with the Creative SB Live! card) is that when the volume progress window appears, the white bar as described previously, is dark blue on this system and only advances once, regardless of how many times the + on the switch is pressed.
On both systems when using these headphones, the Kmix icon in the TDE panel shows the volume at 0%.
For what it's worth, there is a product called Solaar which provides an interface to Logitech devices, but it's no help for your purposes because it just supports keyboards and pointing devices with wireless USB interfaces. Maybe you can get them to think about supporting headsets as well? https://pwr-solaar.github.io/Solaar/
The said Audigy FX (PCIe 1x) and Solaar are basicly identical. The FX has a PCIe-to-USB converter on board. I had that card some months ago for testing - had to return it, 'cause it did not play well with 600 Ohm headphones. But at least the volume control worked.
