It would help if you post your motherboard model. I'm assuming "tcm" is a Bose model(which model?).

Run a cable out of the green output using a "Y" cable with rca(red and white) plugs into the aux.

With little information I'm guessing that you need to go into windows audio setup and if your mother board is using Realtek sound chip, you need to configure both. realtek should have an option for speaker fill that will play sound out of all speakers.

An inexpensive option would be to use a sound card if you have a free PCI express slot open. This card has an optical out and can do surround sound if you want to in the future. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16829102063&cm_re=soundcard-_-29-102-063-_-Product

Happy listening, the Prisoner...
