What brand/model of headsets are you using? Sigtronics? David Clark? Fire Com?

If you use the speaker out put the audio is 'floating' bridge circuit that can not be grounded less you blowout the audio amplifier stage in the radio.

So an isolation transformer is needed.

There is a filtered audio output that could be used that is not affected by the radio's volume control. But you will need an simple amplifier to drive the headphones.
