Hi guys,

I built my first pc this month and I'm having problems with the front panel audio jack. The case and mobo I have are:

BitFenix Neos ATX Tower Black/Blue Window
MSI A88X-G41-PCMATE Motherboard

When the earphones are plugged in all the way I only get sound out of the right earphone. If I have the earphones unplugged half way I get sound in both sides but its pretty bad quality and cuts in and out.

I have tried different earphones, updated the audio drivers, checked that the front panel connector is plugged in properly, made sure the left/right audio split is in the middle and now I'm a bit stumped.

Any help would be really great

Thanks
