Hardware: I am using a ASUS ROG HERO VIII (skylake) board with the Corsair 780t case
Issue: Front audio panel (mic and headphones) is not registering my headphone or mic when I plug it in even though the lights are on indicating that it is properly plugged in.
Research/troubleshooting so far: I googled the issue and visited many sites, and also visited many threads with users reporting similar problems on this website (tom's hardware). I've tried all the solutions I found but none worked (installing Realtek, reinstalling drivers, unplugging and replugging in the HD audio port.
The story: I completed my build about 3 days ago and everything about my build has been absolutely perfect except for this one issue. The strange thing is that the panel WAS working on the first day! I plugged in my headphones as soon as i installed the OS and moved my old files over and started listening to music to celebrate the completion of my new build. Fast forward to 2 days later and I try to plug in my headphones again and all of a sudden it's no longer working.
- Yes the HD Audio is enabled in my BIOS. Some people suggested changing the HD Audio to AC97 instead but I do not have that option. My case ONLY came with the HD Audio input, and the AC97 option doesn't even show up on my BIOS. I don't want to settle for AC97 anyway because the HD Audio was a part of the reason I purchased this board.

I am certain this is the right place because this is the place that is indicated on the motherboard manual, and the plug is shaped in such a way that no other plug will fit in this output, and also makes it impossible to plug HD Audio cable in the wrong way.

As I stated before I've searched for answers for a few hours and tried many different things (reinstall drivers, unplug/replug) and none of those things have worked. Would really appreciate some help.
