As explained, the problem occurs with your sound leaking into the microphone input when using the headset through the front I/O, but not when connected via the motherboard ports. It might be related to cable quality or interference, such as EMI.

Likely EMI issue. Rear I/O connections are as direct as possible on a standard desktop board—especially with built-in audio. The front panel path involves moving from the audio section, through the HD-Audio connector, along the long cable to the front ports on the case. Which board and model?
