    so I'm trying to set this up with no luck

    have my music and game playing from my speakers
    and talking to friends on my headset

    so it's like an xbox 360.

    anyone have any luck on doing this with their m11x without an external sound card?

    How are your headset and your speakers connected?

    I don't get this... Why are you even using a headset if you are using the speakers... Just use the built-in-mic with no headset at all...
