Hi, welcome.  
Have you already tried setting the headset as the Default Communications Device, and what are your results with that?  
Since FxSound works best when the FxSound Speakers device is set as the Default Device.  
You can also find a troubleshooting list with the most common tips and suggestions bannered and pinned to the top of the forum.  
P.S.: Worth adding, perhaps: this thread mentioned the same Jabra device as yours, but with a USB connection (I know Bluetooth is a much more pleasant way to listen),

> A number of my other USB audio devices seem to register with FXSound right away (including Poly Sync 20+, Creative SoundBlaster X4, and even the Jabra Evolve2 85 itself if connected over USB directly) so FXSound seems to be able to register new USB output devices OK in general.
