Dan,

You should be able to use the on-board sound card (er, chip) to feed the 
TV sound.  Typically the TV inputs for audio (to go with the DVI video 
input) will be a pair of RCA jacks.  I assume your mobo sound output 
will be 1/8" stereo jacks.  You can pick up adapters for male 1/8" 
stereo jacks to RCA jacks just about anywhere (even WalMart).

The other, more fun (..... expensive) option would be to feed the mobo 
sound output into an amp and surround speakers.

Good luck!
