I wanna be able to use both my speakers and my headphones. I've got my headset plugged in up front on my case. I've got my surround sound plugged in in the back. How can i use both? It only gives me the option to use either or.

Plug the headphones in the back of your PCI soundcard not to the onboard soundcard

No room

I already have a splitter for the sound going to my TV.

Well there can be only one default audio device...

there are however "quick audio device switchers" that lay in Windows taskbar for quick access

Whats your best advice to connect 3 connections into 1 output?

I wouldn't connect 3 devices to one single output. I'd get another usb soundcard, make it default, connect headphones to it and just disconnect the usb cable whenever I wanted to listen with speakers which will make the PCI soundcard default. Or you could get usb headphones but those tend to stop working right often.
