I think i've missed something in the last couple of years or at least I'm confused on this matter. Most motherboards now come with connections to allow audio ports on the front of the case and several cases are available with ports built on the front for this purpose.
Now for sound to be available in the rear jumpers are placed on the audio header to pass it through. Ok I'm clear to this point.
Now why do the cases I've just purchased have single pin connectors and therefore don't jump the header to allow sound from the rear ports???
I want to be able to connect my boom mic headphones to the front connectors and my speakers from the back. Is this not the purpose of front connectors????
If not I guess i've made a big mistake and wasted my time looking for cases with ports on the front. Somebody please tell me if I'm wrong or if somewhere I can buy additional connectors to jump the audio header and get sound from the back AND front ports at the same time. Please!!
