It looks like that headset is a 2.4GHz wireless gaming surround sound system for PC or Mac. Stadia Pro users should be able to get surround sound in a browser, and as long as you have that headset working for surround sound on your PC or Mac, I don't see why it wouldn't work for Stadia in the Chrome browser as well (again, assuming you have a Stadia Pro account – otherwise it will still work, but will be stereo sound only). Do be aware that since it's a 2.4GHz system, it may interfere with 2.4GHz WiFi, so make sure any WiFi devices you're using are on 5GHz (or Ethernet).

Note that from what I can tell, this headset only provides surround sound using its wireless transmitter and PC or Mac driver software. So, I don't see a way to connect it to a TV or AV receiver in order to play Stadia on a Chromecast Ultra. It does have a wired auxiliary input (stereo only), so that would be the only option there.

Thanks for your answer. I bought Sing and Shout ... at Stadia because I thought I could play it through the micro of the controller. Since this is not possible, I am looking for a way to do this via the Chromecast on the TV via a headset. Unfortunately I didn't find a good list of what is compatible and since I have Logitech hardware I thought I would ask you if it works. I am also happy to receive other suggestions.

Do you mean "One Hand Clapping"? I believe that works with the Stadia controller, but only by connecting a wired headset (with microphone) to the headset jack on the controller or possibly by connecting a wireless USB adapter to the USB type C port on the controller. It looks like your headphones support a wired (stereo) connection to the 3.5mm analog port on the controller, so you may just give that a try. If that works, you may also then try connecting the wireless adapter from your headphones to the controller's USB C port (you may need another adapter to get from USB C to USB type A that your wireless adapter may require). That may also work, but would be limited to stereo.
