I have always had this, well, not really a problem but something I would like to see. How can I get my audio to play from my external speakers and my laptop speakers at the same time? I plug my speakers into the headphones jack but it turns off audio from the laptop spealers. got a solution?

As far as I know, the only way would be to either take out your laptop speakers and put them on a splitter, or re-wire your computer so that it doesn't bypass the laptop speakers when external ones are plugged in. Of course, you might be able to find some kind of software for it.
