The green connector, with 2x5 pin pattern, and one pin that is missing,
is where you connect the audio.

This is a typical pinout for the 2x5 header. This is what you might
see in an Asus motherboard manual, one without Supreme FX.

Pin Signal Name Pin Signal Name
1 MIC 2 GND
3 MIC Power 4 NC
5 Line Out (R) 6 NC
7 NC <-------------- Missing Pin
9 Line Out (L) 10 NC

Now, using your wiring names, this is how I would wire it. Only five
of the wires are used. As far as I know, the "EAR" signals are the
ones that go to the headphone jack, and that is why I've wired them
to pin 5 and 7. Your "Line R" and "Line L" wires will not be used,
and can be left dangling and unconnected.

Pin Signal Name Pin Signal Name
1 "MIC IN" 2 GND
3 "MIC VCC" 4
5 "EAR R" 6
7 <-------------- Missing Pin
9 "EAR L" 10

In addition, you may want to check the motherboard documentation, for
mention of AC'97 setting. The header wiring shown in the above table,
assumes you set the motherboard up for AC'97 header style, which may
be mentioned in the manual. The best way to search your motherboard
manual, is to download the Acrobat PDF version from the support.asus.com
web site.

If you mention the model name/number of the motherboard, I can look
in the manual and tell you what might work.

Have you selected the microphone, via the sound control panel ?

You have two microphones. The rear of the computer has a
microphone jack. And your front panel has a microphone as well.

First, see if plugging in the front microphone, that it is detected
by the audio wizard. It could be, that you haven't selected
the microphone, via the control panel, and that is why the
input signal is not coming in.

I cannot find a reference on the Asus site, for Supreme FX
pinout, so the pinout I provided is related to the Intel
standard, and is my best *guess* as to the correct pinout
to use. The fact that your headphones work, means three
of the wires are in the correct position. My guess would
be, the other two wire positions are correct, and the problem is
a software problem.
