Sound comes from headphones instead of speakers

Hi!

I have an Audigy (1) Platinum EX with latest stable drivers Version: 5, 10, 00, 3534. The weird issue is that although the sound is routed correctly, it only gets outputted on the external panel's headphone and not on my 2.1 speakers. I checked all muted possibilities (but anyhow the speakers and headphones in this card share the same channel) and I don't have ticked the option of "automute when headphones are plugged in" . Here is my configuration :

Any ideas ...please

FIXED: "Toggle Swap front and rear mode" option. Although I don't really understand what that supposed to mean

kX swaps the front and rear by default because with many cards models the rear output has better quality:
