did you follow the motherboard and case manual?

there is a corresponding 9 pin set of jumpers for the 9 pin plug.  look for some markings that say ac97 or hd audio on on the motherboard.

The 4 pin speaker port isn't for the headphone jack, it's for a small speaker you can attach to the motherboard to listen for error codes in case the computer doesn't turn on.

 

As said above, there's a 9 pin jumper, probably labeled HD_AUDIO, AC97 or F_AUDIO or something along those lines.

i cant find it  ive looked and went according to the manual ...... all i can find for the front panel is the reset and power and stuff and the speaker port with 4 pin ..... the power and reset has 9 pins but thats about it

Found a manual here: http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/LGA1151/MAXIMUS_IX_CODE/E12313_MAXIMUS_IX_CODE_UM_V3_WEB.pdf

 

On page 18, you'll see a diagram of your board with the header you want marked as 24. Basically, it's in the bottom row, the leftmost one.

 

EDIT: More info about the header on page 40.
