Does the voip integration actually support your device though? The supported device in the doc seems to be very different from your model: https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/voip
Also, does the SIP port 5060 created by the integration actually accessible from your network? If you're using a firewall, you might need to open the port there.
SIP is SIP. As I stated elsewhere, I actually have it working with asterisk initiating the call from its dialplan.
The directions show how to take a transitional POTS phone and hook it up with a VOIP device. I do want to do that with a fancy looking old phone (but new construction). But with my existing VOIP phone I thought I could skip the conversion device.
Have you checked the homeassistant log and see if there is any error there? It should listen to port 5060 udp. try calling any number and see if it log any error.
In my case, I'm able to connect using ACR Phone android app and home assistant detected it but no sounds even though opus codec is selected. I haven't investigated it further. None of other android sip apps I tried come this close because they either don't support opus, or crash the integration with "Padding and extension headers not supported" error, or refuse to connect because the integration can't handle SIP INVITE.
