B150M Pro4 + Realtek Audio Connector Retasking

Hello! I can't to use Connector Retasking feature using GUI of Realtek HD Manager. Nothing happens when I trying doubleclicking or right clicking on the green color jack in the GUI. But I can to do same thing using Windows registry (and it work fine!). Front panel jack is slighlty damaged so I use headphones with special extension cable connected to back panel. I want to change "Speakers" to "Headphones" for Virtual Surround.

Why I can't use GUI for that feature? Is it a bug in Realtek drivers or new (future) "hardware" limitation?

I use 6.0.1.7647 Realtek drivers version (same as on the DVD or ASRock site).

My system: ASRock B150M Pro4, Windows 10 x64 (Crators Update).

Thanks!

Thanks for answer. Cause unknown reason virtual surround work only for headphones on my system. If jack is detected as "speakers", I can't hear any effects with virtual surround enabled. Maybe because this feature was developed for "...Matrix decoders" (I don't remember right name). But same option (Headphone Virtualization) work fine if I use headphones in front panel or back panel with registry edits.

I'm sorry for bad terminology. Realtek drivers have bad translations for different options. So virtual surround = headphone virtualization.

Probably it was a bad idea to post question here. I have fixed my problem using Windows registry. In same time I can't understand why GUI function is missed.
