Hi,

I recently upgraded my motherboard and replaced my MSI K9N-Neo F with a Asus M3A. Both have a Realtek HD Audio chipset, as far as I know of very similar design. With my old motherboard, I used the black connector to reroute the same signal as with the green one to my headset (so my speakers and my headset had the same signal (=audio out)). I could set this with the Sound Manager in the "Audio I/O" tab.

I installed the drivers for the audio codec with the new board and I had the same Sound Manager, but with this version, I can't change the connected devices (by clicking the symbols). How can I get back the functionality I had before?

TIA

I had the same proble. Found what it was

Go into your Bios (Delete key on statup) And go to Onboard Devices

Front Panel Audio Support

Change it from HDaudio to AC97

And voila, your front panel sound will now work.
