Does ANY sounds come out of the fronts?
If No:
Did you test your Front speakers (Just plug them into the rear ****t)?
Are you (really) using the correct jax :0
Is there another panel location with an earpiece attached (or a defective
jax).
Did you try the Stereo only setting?
Did you remember to mute/disable the MICROPHONE input.
