So I have a soundmax supremefx ii [Yeah im aware its an old card...]

I have all the drivers installed and such but i think somethings off with the connection. In the rear peripheral I plug my headset into the green jack and basically no sound comes out of the left speaker in the headset and it has some horrible inteference. I have NO idea what it is and I dont understand whats really going on...

The sound through the front of the case is absolutely fine, its just i like using the mic through the soundcard as its higher quality than the front jack...

Any ideas?

Is the card seated properly? Might be worth removing the card and then re inserting it fully to make sure its connected properly.

I would have assumed that the front panel connectors would be connected to the soundcard as well, does that card not support that? I would be surprised if it didn't, did you install it yourself?

if the rear is distorted and the front works fine then its probably a hardware issue.
