Thought I'd add my $.02 here. Traditionally, 5-stack boards have outputon Green (front), Black (rear), and Orange (Center/LFE) channels, andInput on Pink (Mic) and Blue (Line). But Blue is also reversable forside output channels giving the user 7.1 surround sound. Since these boards are designed to be used more for multimedia thanrecording, the default of Blue being output in bios kind of makes sense.Of course, it could also be a bios bug (it's been known to happen). If you want to see what the codec is set for in Windows, download thewindows drivers from support.intel.com and look for the PCI subsysytemid in the STHDA.inf file. It will point to another inf file with thedefault pin configs along with a ton of registry settings. Hope this helps. Tobin DavisP.S. I've been monitoring development while finishing my degree. I hopeto return to the fold here soon.
