Try the Button Mapper app:
play.google.com
Select the "+ Add Buttons" option, then select the + icon (bottom right), then press your headset button and see if anything is detected.
You can configure Button Mapper to run the MacroDroid macro(s) of your choosing.
You should be able to use the Launch Application action to run Google Assistant.
Button Mapper: Remap your keys - Apps on Google Play
Remap hardware buttons to launch any app, shortcut or action
Select the "+ Add Buttons" option, then select the + icon (bottom right), then press your headset button and see if anything is detected.
You can configure Button Mapper to run the MacroDroid macro(s) of your choosing.
You should be able to use the Launch Application action to run Google Assistant.

Thanks. Unfortunately Button Mapper doesn't work with the screen off...Try the Button Mapper app:

And there is no option to launch directly the google assistant routine.

In this case I have a problem with an action, not with a trigger - how to launch the shortcut?

Yes, but I don't have a problem with trigger, but with the action. How to launch the shortcut? It is not enough for me to run Google Assistant - I want to run it with specific command ("read my messeges" in this case). I figured out, I can make a routine, which run directly the command to Google Assistant after clicking on the shortcut. But I still don't know, how to click the shortcut when the screen is off.
Button Mapper can run any application, but it cannot run the shortcut.

I mean Google Assistant routine shortcut, not MacroDroid shortcut. It would be a good solution, if I could make a macro with appropriate action (invoke Google Assistant with the command), but I can't.
You can check these macros(link below), if it can be of any help.. It is based with assistant incorporated. You can have a look and extract or modify the required action and workout with a convenient trigger.
