It seems that you have 2 different type of connectors.

Look here: Front panel audio header pinouts (http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/CS-015851.htm)

Also check these:

I post these links to show you that your motherboard's audio connector is probably a HD version (Intel or AC-97) and your front panel's connector is an older type.

Probably you can not connect each other :-(

some of the HD audio boards that come with motherboards can connect to an analog AC-97 connection but it's at a different location on the board.

Mine had two connections side by side..no documentation on which was which other than some slight clues printed on the board.

it may not be connected properly.

If I remember the connector on mine was identical but it was wired differently.

look through your docs again, check online support
