ipod aux input doesnt work. Help!!

For the ipod, there are two connectors, there is one cable that has been installed by the mb factory. The other one is a small hole in the glove box. i bought a cable that plugs into the aux input and plugs into the headphone input on top of the ipod. so when i press the aux, ipod is playing, volume is on high, theres nothing except static. Is there something that im not doing? do i have to activate something or what? i even called the dealership and they had no clue.

At least that is how it is on my 06. There is a way around it, the factory ipod adapter plays music at a lower sound level than the radio, cds, etc, you can unplug it to get the aux working again (i've done this and am happy with the outcome
