Dell WD22TB4 Dock Speaker Input

How can you connect an external speaker with a male 3.5mm connector and a male USB 3.0  connector to a Dell WD22TB4 docking station ? Are there adapters that would be  female 3.5 mm to male Thunderbolt ?   ALso would need a female USB to male  usb cable extender to reach dock which I know you can buy easily ?   There is no 3.5 mm female input jack on this dock station

    Also looking for a solution to this as well.  This docking station is recommended for a gaming laptop, but does not support audio?

    Yes, the picture of the 3.5mm to USB-C adapter above is the solution. That's what I use - it works fine. It's a shame it doesn't come with an audio port (biggest drawback to this docking station) so you have to use one of the few USB ports for it. You can also get a 3.5mm to USB-A adapter if you prefer.
