4004 BIOS ARGB Header Glitch

Seems there is a bug with the new BIOS and/or the LED firmware it flashes - I find both ARGB headers only work if I disable the LED strip in Aura sync or if I select a static colour. If I choose a basic effect, only the second header works. If I use a custom one from Aura Creator, neither of them work.

I'm on the C8F but it seems those with the C8H WiFi also have issues - not sure if it's all C8 mobos with the same bug.

Hoping it's just software and can be fixed with an Armoury Crate/Aura update.

Any others getting the same problem?

Same problem here. I went back to bios 3904 and it works again.

CH8 Formula here.
Was running 3904 with no issues.
Updated to 4004 and ARGB is dead.
Armoury Crate v5.0.11.0 does not even detect the RGB Header in AURA SYNC.
I may flash back to 3904. ugh...

No problems for me. With the new Bios Version 4004, the Aura Firmware will also be Updatet. I had a text after the restart.

I think this problem is due to an incompatibility between the new AURA Firmware and the old AURA Software.

I powered down my CH8 Formula.
Turned off the power supply completely.
Turn the power supply on after waiting 2 minutes.
Booted up the computer.
The ARGB/EKWB Bridge lights up with the Rainbow pattern.
Windows 10 loads.
When the AURA service loads, the ARGB/EKWB Bridge goes dark.

Is Asus even still updating Aura or have they abandoned it for Armoury Crate and Aura Creator? Does this mean that Aura cannot and will not work after this firmware update?
