Thanks for the test results. In your case, there is no explanation for good sound with green front and bad sound with green rear because the same amp/mixer is used for both. For green rear and black rear, different amp/mixers are used. What happens when you connect the headphones to green rear and black rear.
Okay - here's what I've tried (hopefully this table makes sense.) Please note that all the results are based on the sound output from the speakers (not from where the headphones are plugged in.)
headphones location + speakers location = result (sound preferences output device)
green rear + black rear = audio dropouts (line out)
black rear + green rear = audio dropouts (internal speaker)
green front + black rear = no audio dropouts (line out)
not plugged in + green front = no audio dropouts (internal speaker)
not plugged in + black rear = audio dropouts (line out)
not plugged in + green rear = audio dropouts (internal speaker)
Hopefully, that's everything you've asked for. If not, please let me know.
Basically, the two working 100% working configurations are when you always have headphones plugged into the front green audio jack.
