My machine (refurb) came with XP Media Center Edition (but no hardware   
accessories) and Realtek audio software. Afaik, inserting a headphone plug   
(called a "jack" by Realtek) into the frent-panel jack cuts off audio to   
the rear output jack. Not much help, but, at least, related. I suspect   
that software-switched audio takes advantage of very low-cost electronic   
analog switches; no need for relays. (My audio is probably handled by an   
NVidia chip; MSI motherboard.) 

Regards, and good luck!
