Acoustic Energy Aego & X-Fi

How do I connect the speakers to the soundcard?

I've tried the lead from the front of the subwoofer under the volume control straight into the optical out of the x-fi but it doesn't work.

Do I need to connect from the left, right, centre on the rear of the sub?

I'm away from home for a while so I can't just try it atm and it's buggin me!

Right back at home now and just tried the other lead plugging it into the left/right on the speaker and line out 3 on the card and it STILL doesn't work. It doesn't work if I plug the lead into any of the slots in the x-fi card?!

The speaker works with an mp3 player by plugging into the front socket but I can't get the pc to play through it ...
