Front audio port not working

[_Bowser_]

 just build a new computer with an ASUS Z170-A in a R5 Define with windows 10.

 

What I tried so far is:
- checked if HD Audio cable on motherboard is correctly plugged in. It is.
- Tried setting the front panel to AC97 in BIOS instead if HD Audio. 
- reinstalled drivers several times and messed with every setting once to no avail...

Yeah, everything is fine but the  audio and mic port on the front.

Then you probably plugged the wires from the front of the case wrong into the MB (I have made this mistake in the past, dont feel shame!).
If this is not the case, then its probably the case (pun intended).

I've noticed that in the software for mine there's an option to tie up similar input jacks. Disable that option, then they should work independently of each other
