Dumb question, but how do I hook up a very simple headphone set to my
computer in order to listen to an audio CD without it coming through the
desk speakers? Have tried plugging the jack(?) into the CD-ROM, and have
checked all the sound settings to make sure nothing is muted. The sound
still comes through the desk speakers. Any suggestions?

Mute the speakers (use the tray icon). Plug the headphones into the
jack on the CD drive. Rotate the volume wheel on the CD drive to the
desired sound level.
