Fan Control for optional fans on Rampage IV Gene

I just did a Rampage IV Gene build with 5 PWM fans hooked up every header on the motherboard. I can see all the fan speeds in the sensor, but in FAN Xpert I can only see CPU Fan and Chassis Fan 1. I have another build with a Maximus V Gene setup in a similar fashion and am able to control and see all the fans in FAN Xpert. Any idea why this is not working with this newer motherboard? I am using Windows 8.1 x64 if that makes any difference. Thank you for your time.

Are you using fan splitters or hubs to connect, or is each fan directly connected to a mobo header? Mine gives me strange results if I connect PWM fans via a 3-pin splitter cable (don't ask why one would do that - it was the only splitter I had on hand. LOL)

Also, fwiw, I don't think the 'Optional' fans show in Fan Xpert at all, you have to control those via bios.
