There are generally two types of outputs on televisions these days, External Speakers and Digital Audio Out. Using External Speakers requires a choice - sound either comes from the internal speakers OR the external speakers. Digital Audio Out does not require a choice - sound comes from BOTH at the same time. Use whichever works best for you but the OP will want the Digital Audio Out connection.
