Hey guys, I got my new PowerMac Thursday, and I love it. Today I hooked up an old pair of speakers to the audio out jack in the back, but I usually listen through my headphones thru the front jack. When I'm listening to my headphones though, the speakers are outputting the music too. Any way to stop this?

unplug or turn off the speakers

I think that's just how the audio system on the Power Macs work. I don't like it... that's why I ended up buying Apple Pro Speakers and using my iSub.

Another solution is a set of speakers with a headphone jack on them.

Problem is, if they had done it the other way, people would complain about that too!

I think it should be a preference in the sound panel. Like a check box along the lines of "Mute Rear Audio when front connected", and/or the opposite.
