Cooler Master COSMOS C700M case LED funkyness

Just throwing this out there while I troubleshoot, but this case has a built-in little fan controller / LED controller kind of like a Corsair Commander Pro (except that this actually runs the ARGB instead of needing yet another box to do that).

 

The front panel IO area has two toggle switch things to adjust fan speed, and LED operation (switch between color modes, or set to motherboard sync). The controller also has a USB motherboard connector for 'firmware upgrades' according to the manual.

 

Anywho, for a yet-unknown reason, the LEDs all seem to work but the front panel buttons do not. They're supposedly supposed to be lit up which they are not nor do they change the LED behavior. The front panel control cable is definitely connected to the controller, and I tried unplugging its two SATA power plugs to 'reset' it, but still nada. Unsure if the fan thing would work since I'm running all the fans directly from motherboard fan headers.

 

Given this testing, would you guys agree that the controller or front panel seems faulty?

Did you come to know what was the issue. The top ones of mine are not working
