Hello there

but in win 10 its show up like this

from the top its say:
(green) back panel 3.5mm
(green) front panel 3.5mm
(black) back panel 3.5mm
(orange) back panel 3.5mm

result off this is that my rear speakers dont work

any solutions to this?
my google search just show the generel win 10 speaker issue

PS: for some reason i cant install realtek audio manager only the driver

Front panel 3.5mm jack on a PC is usually for headphones so using that jack automatically mutes the speakers (that's why they don't work).


You therefore cannot use the front jack for speakers - - it's only for headphones. Speakers must be plugged in to the appropriate jack at the back of the PC case. The soundbar can't be used (unless you unplug the speakers and use the soundbar instead).

In any case, a soundbar is designed to be used with the latest slim TVs which typically don't have satisfactory built-in speakers.

If you want better sound output from your PC you need to buy a better set of PC speakers (with a sub-woofer unit) to replace the speakers you already have.

thing is that windows thinks the soundbar is using the black audio jack but in reality its only using the green one

I know that realtek provides simotaniously (sorry typo) front and back playing on my ALC892, but sound is more weaker.
Note:You need to install realtek control panel to enable that setting.

Like I said, you don't plug a soundbar in to a PC at all, they aren't designed for computer use.

Get a better set of active PC speakers with a sub-woofer if you want better quality sound. Speakers should only be plugged in to the appropriate jacks at the back of the case.

Uninstall audio drivers, reinstall them either from realtek site or from your motherboard , if it still gives issues.
Never used passive, only car radio on 12V with 180W system xD.
But still lisen what Philip Cocoran says.
