Hi Janina,
I think I might have a solution for you.
The only reason this will work is that you are using the headset for all
three functions: ringer, playback, and capture.  If you needed something
fancier, this falls flat.
You can set a specific default card for a given application using the
ALSA_CARD environment variable.
For instance,
ALSA_CARD=Headset espeak 'Hello there.'
should cause espeak to speak the string through your headset.
So try setting ALSA_CARD when starting linphone.

Now there's another problem in that Linphone seems to want to use
pulseaudio for the default sound output.  Can't help you with that one.
Maybe the config file would at least let you specify alsa rather than
pulse?
