Connecting front audio ports to mainboard headers

Basically there is an Audio Header on the K7S5A labeled "Audio2" this header is used to plug in front audio ports located on most newer cases. In the manual this header has 9 pins as #7 is the KEY pin. There needs to be 2 jumpers placed on this header if rear audio jacks are to work they are: -(as labeled in the manual)

#5 - AUD_FPOUT_R - Right Channel Audio signal to Front Panel
#6 - AUD_RET_R - Right Channel Audio signal to Return from Front Panel

to Clarify.. #5 and #6 pins to be closed with a Jumper

#9 - AUD_FPOUT_L - Left Channel Audio signal to Front Panel
#10 - AUD_RET_L - Left Channel Audio signal Return from Front Panel 20

to Clarify.. #9 and #10 pins to be closed with another Jumper

If you decide to use front audio in the future with the K7S5A you will need to remove these 2 jumpers to plug in the connectors for front audio ports and in turn will disable your rear audio ports again. both front and back ports can NOT be used at the same time for this mother board.
