I'm in the process of building a new PC. The motherboard is an MSI Tomahawk B450. Its front panel audio connector has three pins related to headphones; they're labelled "Head Phone R", "Head Phone L", and "Head Phone Detection".



Well, my (older) case's front panel has wires for headphone L and R (which I connected to the proper pins), but there isn't one for headphone detect. Unsurprisingly, Windows/Realtek never detect headphones in the jack and I never hear any sound. I tried disabling headphone detection in Realtek software hoping that would just leave the jack active all the time, but this didn't make any difference.



I'm assuming the problem is because I don't have a wire to connect to the headphone detect pin, but I could be wrong about that. But if I'm not, is there any workaround, or am I stuck?



The rear speaker port works fine.
