No. The phase transition does not happen from the optimized volume of
phase 1 to the optimized volume of phase 2.

You wrote almost the answer. Calculate a few E(V) data points for the
first phase, fit a Murnaghan equation of state through them (x eosfit),
and you have as a result (V, E, P)-data for the studied interval
(case.outputeos, case.eosfit, case.eosfitb). From this, you can easily
calculated the enthalpy H=E+PV. Repeat for the second phase, and see at
which pressure the two enthalpy curves intersect.
