setting up headphones with mic, in alternate speaker ports



ok, i need a little help here. a friend of mine has just recently bought a
set of headphones with a built in microphone. they have both ports in the
face, and the rear of the box. if the headphones and mic are plugged in at
the back, they work but they have to unplug the main speakers. i'm not sure
if the ports at the front work or not but it appears they don't, or the ports
just aren't set up properly. i'm not sure how to set up the front ports and
i've tried using the headset in the front ports with unplugging the speakers
at the back. although the point is that they'd like to use the headphones and
mic while the speakers are plugged in still, it would be a nuisance having to
unplug the speakers at the back just to plug the headset in.

if anyone has an idea or knows how to fix the problem then the help is
greatly appreciated.. Thank - Trev
