The audio port includes two parts – the Front
Audio and Rear Audio. Their priority is se-
quenced from high to low (Front Audio to Rear
Audio). If headphones are plugged into the
front panel of the chassis (using the Front
Audio), then the Line-Out (Rear Audio) on the
rear panel will not work. If you do not want to
use the Front Audio, pin 5 and 6, pin 9 and 10
must be short, and then the signal will be
sent to the rear audio port.
