Default SoundMax Problem

Can anyone help, I have a Nortek Soundream 5.1 speaker system. I can't see
how to connect the rear speakers from the woofer unit to my intergrated
sound chip.
All the speakers, front, centre,and rear connect to the woofer unit (output
sockets) then from the (input sockets) to the CPU sound output 3.5 jack
sockets. I have three 3.5 jacks, two of which are plugged into light blue
and the other is plugged to the yellow socket. But I can't see where the
third 3.5 jack (rear speakers) is to be plugged. (no dirty suggestions
please lol).

Ps, the motherboard is a ASUS P5P800 SE.

Have you looked in the manual ?

Section 2.7 describes the motherboard connectors.

Yellow is the SPDIF output - 6 MHz digital 75 ohm output.
You don't connect audio to that.

The audio stack is vertical and consists of three connectors.
Blue on top, green in the middle, pink on the bottom.
Blue = rear, green = front, pink = center/bass
