You don't need to worry about the "correct" impedance for each
destination. Just use Y cables with the proper connectors to match
where the signal is coming from and where it's going. Or build on.

You can purchase a distribution amplifier, but given your short
description, it's not worth the expense.

If there's a "line" output as well as a speaker output, you might try
using that instead. Sometimes it sounds better.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

They do, relative to the output impedance of the sound card. It's not a
problem, considering the non-criticality of your application (based on
what you're connecting to what).
