I have a HDTV hooked up to my computer in a dual monitor display along with my monitor via an HDMI cable. When I watch movies on the TV through my computer, I also get sound from my computer speakers. I know it's possible to get audio through the HDMI port by connecting a cable from the video card to the motherboard, but I was wondering how to set it up. My video card came with a cable, this is my card.

and this is my motherboard

The pictures of the monitor are on the bottom. Where would I plug the audio cable into the motherboard? Also, is it possible for me to have sound coming from my TV when I'm watching a movie and have sound coming from my computer for the other display at the same time?
 
you connect the jumper cable from the video card to the spid connection on the mother board (polarity doesnt matter) also if you are running vista you can only select either desk top speakers or hdmi not both at the same time. you select which option in vista by right clicking the speaker on the bottom right toolbar and select "audio devices". I also use ultramon to better manage my displays.
