MSI z77a-GD55 front panel audio not working?

[pajoslav83]

Hello people
As topic says I can't make front panel audio to work.. I do have two options on board Audio HD and one more, but it's not working on any I connect. Everything is enabled in BIOS i checked twice.

When I connect same speakers to back (green) I get notification in windows that it's connected and I chose what I connect. But when I do that on front panel (Tower: CoolerMaster Storm Enforcer) I don't get any notification or any sound coming from that panel..

Any ideas what I can do?

This could mean that your front audio jack on the computer case does not work. Only the audio jack on your motherboard does.

Perhaps get a replacement for the case.

On page 1-26 in your manual, there are the pin-outs for the audio connection on the front panel. You have head phone L, head phone R and head phone detection pins that must be connected for it to sense when headphones are plugged in.
