Default Front jack doesn't override surround, need help

I get no sound from my headset as long as speakers are plugged into the rear jacks. There should be a way to have the front jacks override the rear ones, can anyone help?

A couple of quick facts:
1. I know the headphone jack works because I can get sound from it when the speakers aren't plugged into the back.

2. The mic jack (right next to the headphones jack) works fine.

3. Case is an Antec 900

Does your motherboard have onboard sound, are you using onboard sound or do you have a pci sound card?

If you have a pci sound card have you connected the case header to the motherboard or the sound card as it will need to be attached to the sound card to deactivate the speakers, if you are using onboard sound check you have correctly connected the header to the motherboard
