My question is how would I achieve audio?

Thats a good one...give me a sec ill look at my xbox.

Nope the only way is to use the Xbox 360 VGA cable that includes sound cables and an optical connection.

plug this into the hdmi out of the xbox, and use the standard cables that came with your xbox to output audio. if you want to use your computer speakers you will need an rca to minijack adapter. you can find those everywhere

not true.. u can use the component/composite cables included with the xbox in addition to the hdmi to output audio.

plug your computer speakers into it, if that's what you want. otherwise you can plug your audio out into anything else that will accept an audio input, like a nearby audio receiver, or stereo system.
