Hello! Here’s another post about front audio not working. I’ve read and tried a lot of things but none of them seem to work for me. Sound is working great through HDMI and headphones when connecting them in the back of my PC, but not in the front panel.
Sorry for bringing here a common topic… Hope you can help.
