MS-7030 Motherboard front headphone and rear speaker out

I need help on my setting for the K8N Platinum Neo (MS-7030) Motherboard, so that I could have both the front headphone and rear speaker out working.
As in the manual (Page 2-20), for the Line-Out connector on the back panel to function, I have to jumpered pins 5 & 6, 9 & 10. This will disable the front audio headphone.
But I need both to work, then how should be my setup?
Please help ! ! !

I wanted the same thing - rear speaker connection plugged in permanently but the possibility of plugging in headphones to the front connector when I need them.
My speakers have an SPDIF (coax) socket and I found to my pleasant surprise that removing the jumpers to redirect the line-out signal to the front does not interfere with audio out through SPDIF.
So one answer (if your speakers support it) is to take out the jumpers, use SPDIF for the rear speakers and plug the phones in the front when you need them.
(I have the Neo Plat but haven't updated my sig yet).
[edit] Continuing the theme, if you don't have SPDIF input and given that it's only the line-out signal that is redirected, you can get a coax cable for the SPDIF out and a converter to go between the cable and your speaker jack input. I used just such a converter (just 1"/2cm long) for my KT3 board which had SPDIF out on an S-bracket but MSI brilliantly used a standard 2.5mm jack socket for it!

  • [RESOLVED] How can I use front headphones and rear speaker jack as separate output ports?

    My Optiplex 7010 has your usual onboard sound configuration -- speaker and microphone jacks in both the front and rear. Recently my USB headset (which I use for conference calls) developed a short and while I wait for a new set to arrive, I'm temporarily
    using an old set that still needs mini stereo jacks.
    So I plugged the headset in to the front jacks, and left the external speakers plugged in to the rear jacks. Unfortunately the Windows sound configuration for this system only recognizes one "High Definition Audio Device" and if I plug in the headset,
    the external speakers stop working.
    My goal is to have phone/Lync calls go through the headset, but all other sounds -- most importantly contact alerts -- go through the external speakers.  Is that possible?  OS is Windows 7 Enterprise.
    [edited to close this question] The short answer is, you can't get there from here unless your sound card supports assigning a different device name to the front jacks vs. the back jacks, which mine does not.

    Fairly sure that would depend on the specific sound card in the machine and the drivers and related software you have installed on your machine. By default I believe most sound cards are configured to report to Windows that you have one sound input/output,
    so the same sound comes from both front and back depending on what you have plugged into them. In order to get Windows to see them as separate connections and allow you to send different sound output to each you'd need to configure that in your sound card
    driver software.
    For example, see
    http://www.eightforums.com/sound-audio/37996-realtek-hd-audio-only-shows-one-audio-output-time.html which discusses setting up essentially the same thing as you're after on a machine with a realtek sound card, and includes screen shots of the software and
    where to configure it. I don't know if your machine is using a Realtek card for sure, if not you'd obviously need the driver software for the card, but looking online it looks like the OptiPlex 7010's do indeed use them.

  • I can't hear my phone calls unless I put it on speaker. Tried cleaning by blowing on earpiece and headphone jack and pushing near front camera and earpiece speaker...no luck. HELP!

    I can't hear my phone calls unless I put it on speaker. Tried cleaning by blowing on earpiece and headphone jack and pushing near front camera and earpiece speaker...no luck. HELP!

    If you've tried everything mentioned you probably have a failed earpiece. One option is to get a BlueTooth headset and use it for all calls. It will be cheaper than the $199 out-of-warranty replacement price from Apple (if it's still in warranty or AppleCare it will be free). Good BT headsets can be had for around $40. And it will hold you over until the Next New Thing from Apple is available

  • [SOLVED] Pulseaudio, sound coming from both headphone and laptop speak

    I switched to PulseAudio a while back, everything is working fine, except I can't find a way to get sound "only" in headphones.
    "Built-in Audio Analog Stereo" has three Ports: 'Analog Output', 'Speakers' and 'headphones'. Choosing Speakers give no sound, and choosing Analog output and headphones gives sound from both headphones (if it's attached) and laptop speakers.
    I have pavucontrol installed but can't find any option for it in it either. Any suggestions?

    That code looks specific to that sound card, though I tried it anyways, by changing
    device=hw:M2496
    to
    device=hw:1
    (where  1 is index of my card), but now I can't get any sound from my sound card. I have commented out those lines, removed .config/pulse, restarted pulseaudio, restarted laptop, but I still can't get any sound from that soundcard anymore.  (EDIT: Apparently sound was muted in Kmix (thought it wasn't in pavucontrol), don't know how that works, maybe I missed something, anyways, I am again getting sound, but everything else is same.)
    And my original problem still remains.
    I am assuming if I know the names of channels (for headphone and laptop speaker), I can create a new sink/source and use that to route the sound properply, but I can't figure out exactly how to do all that.
    P.S: If anyone is looking at the link shared by emeres, it's moved to here

  • Anyway to swap front and rear speake

    Not sure if this should be here or in the speaker section.
    I have an Audigy 2005, and Inspire 6. speakers.
    The way I have my room set up, I have my computer on one side of the room, and my TV on the exact other.
    I want to be able to have it so that the sound is coming from the front no matter what device I use.
    ie When using the computer; speakers on that side of the room are treated as front, and when watching TV, I want to somehow switch it so the speakers on that side are treated as the front speakers.
    i.e front left <-> rear right, front right <-> rear left, front centre <-> rear centre
    Hope that you can understand this, I almost confused myself..
    Thank you
    Craig

    I _think_ that you can set it up in one of the consoles so that it will switch it around, for further details though you'd need someone who has used the consoles
    other than that all I can suggest is swapping either the speaker cables in the sub or the front and rear minijacks in the soundcard itself

  • Y410p Front headphone and microphone jacks not working after repair

    I recently (last month) sent  my IdeaPad Y410p in to Lenovo for repairs due to the laptop not turning on, or repeatedly restarting at the BIOS screen. The laptop was repaired by Lenovo (they replaced the motherboard), and returned it to me. The laptop has worked great sincce then, except that the two USB ports on the right side and the headphone and microphone jacks do not work. I have reinstalled the audio drivers, twice, but have not reinstalled the chipset drivers at all, as I don't want to screw around with those untiol I no more about what I should do. Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi Talonek, welcome to the forums,
    the problem you are experiencing is probably due to the cable connecting the ports on the right side, front of system, to the mainboard unfortunately not being connected or connected properly.  Please see pdf page 52 of the system's Hardware Maintenance Manual.
    I've never taken an Y410p apart, but having looked at the manual the cable connection may well be accessible to check / fix by removing the hard drive.  Another alternative would be to call service and ask them to do this for you.

  • Sound bouncing between Headphones and Internal Speaker

    I'll use my headphones for an extended period of time and after I unplug the headphones, the sound will "bounce" btw Internal Speaker & Headphones per the Sound Output display within System Preferences. I am running the latest OS X. I do have an older PowerBook G4 12"...but I don't really remember encountering this issue until recently.
    Thoughts? Suggestions?

    I have the same problem - when the headphones are not plugged in, I hear and see the sound output in the System Preferences -> Sound -> Output -> Choose a device for sound output shifting between Internal Speakers, Headphones and Built-in Audio (ispk).
    When I plug in the headphones, though, the sound stablilises to the headphones. The sound, from iTunes at least, also seems to be ok with AirPort Express with AirTunes. Also if I play a music video with Quicktime, things return to normal. But simply playing music to the internal speakers is problematic.
    My PowerBook G4 is also almost 2 years old, and just started doing this today. I suspect it has something to do with the headphone jack and auto-sensing whether it's plugged or not. But I've never noticed the Built-in Audio (ispk) option before this problem started up.

  • Headphones and Internal speaker playing at the same time. PROBLEM

    Whenever I go to listen to my month old 5th gen. ipod, the noise coming from the headphones is tiny and barely abe to be heard, and for some reason the internal speaker plays louder. I've tried different headphones and I've tried pushing it in all the way, and nothing has worked. I NEED HELP.

  • Headphone and Internal Speaker Volume Levels

    I saw a topic about this earlier, but it has become locked, so I thought I would post another to see if anyone has any information about it. Until recently, I have been able to set my headphone volume and internal speaker volume at different levels. In other words, I can set the speakers to a certain volume, plug in my headphones, set the headphones to a different volume, then unplug the headphones and the volume changes back to what it was before I plugged in the headphones. I don't know exactly when it started happening, but I can no longer set these at two separate levels. I have seen that other people are having this problem, so I know it isn't just something stupid that i am doing. Anyone know why this is happening, or what I can do about it? Any help would be much appreciated.

    Assuming that you're not listening to songs that have been imported at very low level, the next thing to do is a full Restore. A Restore will remove everything form your iPod, reset it and then put back onto the iPod only what is in your iTunes library. So if you have items that are not in your library (and therfore on the computer) you need to sort that out first.
    I believe it will also reset your user data in any Apps you use. There is a backup method for this, but I'm not sure how it works as I've never tried it.
    If that doesn't work, there must be a hardware issue, which means booking it in for service.

  • Difference between Front Facing and Rear Camera

    Hi, I noticed that the pictures i take of myself (with the Front Facing Camera?) are completely different from the ones people take of me(Rear Camera). It's like i'm two different looking people, which made me think how do i really look.
    I thought that maybe the Front Facing picutres is how i look to myself/Mirror and the Rear camera pictures is how people actually see me but then it didn't make sense to me because how is it possible that the person i see in the mirror is not what i actually look like to everyone.
    hope you understood as english is not my first language.

    It's not that, what i mean is that when someone take a picture of me with my phone then it will look very different from a photo i'll take of myself( flipping the camera to Mirror/Front Facing), now obviously there will differences as the angles are different, but in my case the person on the rear camera photos is completely different then the one in the mirror photos.

  • SBlive Value and 2 audio out settin

    Hi, Just a quick question. I want to be able to hook up 2. speakers to the front speaker out, and have the identical sound come out of the headphones I have hooked up to the rear speaker out. I had an old version of AudioHQ that allowed some option (Ibelieve it was 2 speaker legacy audio out or something like that) which allowed both the front speaker out and rear speaker out on my SBli've value card to have the same output sound. I just recently formatted and installed the new control panel, and I can't for the life of me find that option under the new version of audioHQ (.0) using windowsXP pro SP2.
    All I want is a setup where I can listen to mp3s from anywhere in the house but then just turn the volume down on the speakers and play an online game through the headphones without climbing behind my computer to switch wires and without disturbing the wife. Any help would be much appreciated, or if someone has a better suggestion to my problem it would also help.

    Wheresjj
    Did this soundcard come preinstalled in your Gateway computer? If so you will need to contact your computer manufacturer for support as the card may be OEM. OEM components are often modified from their retail standards and require special drivers that only the Vendor will have access to.

  • Satellite M30X-122: How to use headphone and speaker at the same time?

    Hi,
    is there any possiblity to use the headphone and the speaker at the same time?
    When I plug the head phones in the socket, the speaker is swtiched off now.
    Thanks
    Peter

    Hi Peter,
    Unfortunately there is no way to use both the headphones and the speakers at the same time. This is because tghere is as physical disconnection of the current to the internal speakers when you plug in the headphones. It is not software controlled. The only way of bypassing this would be to dismantle the headphone socket and permanently solder the connections which are broken when you insert the headphone socket.
    regards,

  • Creative Audigy 2 ZS Firewire, and Multiple Speaker Questi

    Hi I currently own a Audigy 2 ZS. I understand that it has a Firewire port on the back. I have a Firewire port on my case. If i wanted to plug the Firewire on the front of my case into the Audigy, how would I go about doing that? Is it possible? I also have Headphone and Microphone Jacks on the front of my case, can I enable those also? What will I need to disable to get both of these?
    Also, how many different speakers can i have connected to the sound card at once without purchasing an adapter. I have one Digital Set, One Flat Panel Set, One Desktop Speaker Set, and One Headphone with Microphone. THe Headphone with Mic always needs to be plugged in, along with the Digital Set. Do I have room for the flat panel and the Desktop Speakers? Or should I buy a stereo splitter from Radio Shack? Thanks for your help.
    -Dave

    D3vL,
    Yes that's normal for stereo stuff since they only have 2 channel without CMSS. It's just that Li've and Audigy 2 ZS is built a little differently.
    With CMSS2, the sound effect on center and rear speaker maybe a little soft but you should have sound output also. Try adjusting the Stereo Focus slider and see if it makes any different. Since you are using the soundcard upmix feature, turn off the upmix feature(LED off) of the S750 on the control pod.
