Hello,
I've been struggling with this for the past few hours and I just don't get this.
I've opened my case to see that there are 2 front panel audio connectors. One being "Audio" (just AUDIO, no HD in front of that), other being "AC97".
However, I suspect it's meant HD Audio, otherwise, what's the point of the 2nd connector?
In BIOS, > Onboard Devices > HD Audio Controller is ENABLED.
Under it, front panel audio controller is set to HD Audio.
However, to get front panel audio to work in W10, I have to click AC97 under Connector Settings in Realtek HD Audio Manager (RHDAM).
Whether in BIOS, HD Audio is selected, or AC97, it doesn't matter.
Selecting HD Audio under RHDAM in W10 doesn't let me use front panel at all. Like it's disconnected.
I haven't tried using the 2nd connector inside the case. Should I? I don't want AC97, but, could they possibly mismatched them?
My case is ofbrand, literally nothing on it. It was cheap, it came with a 500W power supply, but I can't remember the name.
I can't find out, because the papers that came up with it are home, and I'm a student in another city.
If anyone is wondering, I have ALC887, on ASUS H97M-e MB.
I've described the problem being front panel audio, but I want to make it clear that I want audio on macOS Sierra, hence why I'm posting here, on this forum.
I have a dual boot.
