Mac Mini Audio line out and USB Audio output.
I'm going to be setting up my Mac Mini to 2 different audio sources. I want my DVD movies to play through the TV speakers and I want iTunes to play music through the home stereo system.
Is it possible to use the Audio Line Out on the MacMini AND use a USB Audio device (iMic USB Audio Interface) connected to my home stereo at the same time?
Can you have 2 Audio output devices on 1 machine?
With Sound prefences, can I setup my Mac to play audio from Itunes through the USB Audio output? AND when I watch a DVD on my MacMini, can it play audio through the TV speakers? (I'm using a plasma TV with built in speakers as the display for my Mac Mini). Anyone know?

just buy a $2 splitter from radio shack.
you could use the airport express
to send iTunes to your stereo, and
send the line output to your TV.
