QOS non-cisco softphone?

We recently migrated some of our voice to a 3rd party IVR off our on-prem CUCM.  In doing so the users phones moved from their desk (voice vlan using auto QOS) to a softphone (non-cisco) running on their workstations (data vlan).  I am wondering what I need to do to apply QOS to the data vlan for voice traffic on the LAN?  I had good luck with the 'auto qos voip cisco-phone' and so forth but that was with the phones on a dedicated voice vlan.   

 

This is what we were using..but not really doing anything now as users aren't using their desk phones.  

 power inline auto max 15400

We use the following on our environment for access ports:

switchport mode access
switchport nonegotiate
switchport access vlan xx
switchport voice vlan xx 
srr-queue bandwidth share 1 30 35 5
srr-queue bandwidth shape 10 0 0 0
priority-queue out
mls qos trust dscp
auto qos trust

In addition, we have a Windows AD that pushes the EF-bit for voice traffic to client workstations via Group Policy, but you could probably set this manually in the softphone app. Thsi way voice packets are tagged accordingly.

Hi
Once the softphone is tagging the packet before it hits the port mls qos trust dscp will work and carry the marking but I would make sure the SP is tagging it first correctly , I would span one of the SP access ports and check the Wireshark for the packet and make sure the EF bit is present in it.
