I am wanting to upgrade my sound card as i just got my PC165 headset through and i want to use it off the sound card and not usb, i also want to use my surround sound.

Confused? good.....
during the day (when sick

) i want to have it on my 5500 then parents go to bed missus gone home, i need the headset. but.... i dont wanna be routin round the back of my pc to swap them over.

Can i have my speakers connected to the card and then when i want my head set on, connect that to the front?

any help would be wkd!

Ok, Thanks for that!
But... if the auto mute takes place, where do the headphones plug in? in the card of the X-Fi front unit. If in the back i have my speakers in there.
