How to use PS3 with a monitor?
My TV was recently stolen, so now I'm hooking the PS3 up to a Dell monitor 23". But I have found out it is really difficult to get the sound out of the PS3.
My problem is even if I connect my USB headset, I can't play audio through it, only voice. There are some turtle beach headphones that work off a special plug on the PS3 (or something) but they cost $150. Is there a more clever way to get audio out of the PS3?

Do you still have the RCA composite + left/right audio output cable? (The one with the yellow, red and white plugs.) It is possible to configure the PS3 to output audio to both HDMI and the RCA cable.
Under "Settings" go to "Sound Settings" and turn on "Audio Multi-Output".
3You could try a device that separates the HDMI audio and video data with composite outputs, such as i answered in Help with sound for a Xbox 360 w/ HDMI cable
