Hello all,

I just recently built a pc (Windows vista ultimate x86) with a Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3L. Everything works great except for the front panel audio. At first I was having problems trying to figure out how to get the front panel audio to work, but now I have a different problem. I read different forums in here that stated how I needed to disable front panel audio detection in order to get it to work. I did that and true enough, I could get audio from the front panel. The problem that exists now is that I am getting sound from both the front and the back even when I have headphones in the front panel. It does not mute the back (main speakers) even though i have the play back device option set to "Mute the rear output device, when a front headphone plugged in". I have tried setting different options to no avail.

Any help would be appreciated.


Thanks.

Did you use the HD audio connector or the AC97 front panel audio connector?

I used the connector that came with the case. Based on the case website (Raidmax), I believe it is an AC97 connector. Do I need to purchase a separate connector, and if so how would i replace the existing one?

Thanks.

I belive but am not positive that you must change some jumper if you are using AC97 Front panel audio connector, I look it up in depth possibly.
