Audio from 2 outputs??

Here is my situation:

I have a small subwoofer and 2 speakers that I have plugged into my onboard sound from my Asus mobo, which provide enough audio when simply using the computer as normal. The sound works just fine on them. Also the these speaker INPUT to the board via 1/8" green headphone jack, that's it.

I then purchased a sound card for another set of 5.1 speakers I have, for use during game play. Now of course when I plug in my 5.1 surround speakers into the sound card the card does not play audio from them unless I set the output to the sound card. Also, these are input by 3 1/8" headphone jack ranging in color from black, yellow, green.

How can I set up my computer to output sound to BOTH onboard and the sound card?? By the way my card is one of those Creative X-FI fancy cards if that matters at all in this case.
 
Just split the front channel so it goes to the 2.1 speakers also. Also, your setup sounds really odd to me, as you have both 2.1 and 5.1 speakers hooked up. Why do you need both?

I used 2.1 for normal computing. I then want to be able to turn on my 5.1 while gaming.
