audio

Hi everyone.  I finally transferred the audio on the Inspiron 560 to my tv.  It work great. Unfortunately, I do not have any audio coming from the pc speakers without turning my tv to the video input.  To get the sound to the tv I plugged a mini jack into the headphone jack on the pc and the red and white rca plugs into the audio input of the tv.  I can unplug the mini jack from the headphone jack and the audio is heard on my pc.  I was thinking there must be a better solution then unplugging the jack all the time.  I should be able to listen to regular tv and hear the audio from my pc.  I hope I explained my problem correctly.    Any help would be appreciated.  mary.

    When something is plugged into the front headphone jack it automatically mutes the rear GREEN speaker jack.  If you want to hear both, use a "Y" cable, such as THIS Example and plug it into the rear GREEN speaker jack.  Connect the speakers to one of the Y cable connections and the TV to the other.

    You should be able to get one of these at Radio Shack, Best Buy, etc.
