I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 and using an ATI Radeon HD 4650 through which I'm pushing HDMI video AND audio.

In order to accomplish this, I had to choose "HDMI Audio" as my primary/default audio device. This in turn completely disabled my analog (on-board sound) audio.

I am running HDMI straight to my television, but would like to ALSO have the analog audio working in order to:
1. Run it to my receiver for room 2/ dual zone capability
2. Not have to have my TV on to listen to audio from the PC.

Is there a way you guys know of where I can have BOTH HDMI and on-board analog (mini audio jack out) enabled simultaneously? It's been frustrating me for a bit and I appreciate any input!

Thanks,

Anthony
 
I can't say for sure, as it's not my field, but I noticed you mentioned zone 2. Do you have a Pioneer receiver by chance? If so, and also with other brands as well, I'd suggest running the HDMI to the receiver (assuming your TV and receiver are close by, I'm assuming), then run the TV to the receiver, so that you can have AV going to the receiver, which can play music, and then you can switch the TV on when you need to play videos.
