headphone jacks

[swainess]

how can I separate my rear audio jack from my front audio jack? ok so this is what I'm working with.. I have my headset in the rear jack and I just went to add a set of speakers to the front jack, however when I plug my speakers in the audio goes straight to them. I tried opening Realtek audio manager but I guess this system runs off NVidia. so now the issue becomes how do I open that audio manager to separate the jacks? I want to be able to switch them so that when I'm not gaming I can listen to music without unplugging anything

I reviewed your post and I understand that you want to separate the front and back audio jack.

Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.

I recommend you follow the below steps and check if it helps.

1. Update your Realtek High definition Audio driver to the latest version from this link.
2. Click the document folder icon in Realtek HD Audio Manager, and check both options,
3. Click Device Advanced Settings and select separate all input jacks as independent input devices.
4. press OK and finished.

Let me know how it goes and you have a great day!
