I have set up about 4 surround sound systems. All of them require to switch to the input/component before the signal can output to the speakers. So computer 1 would get it while computer 2 wouldnt be picked up by the receiver. what i recommend is that, if you have a sound blaster with the internal drive with the connectors, have the media pc spdif out into the alienware and have it played there, while outputting the alienware to the surround sound system.
