Using USB on my 2007WFP with a KVM

I just recently bought the Companion 5 setup from Bose. I know there's lots of Bose haters out there, but.. the sound quality really impressed me. Anyway, that's irrelavent.

What I'm concerned with is that I can no longer have audio through my KVM because my subwoofer plugs in to my USB port instead of the traditional audio port. I was wondering if plugging the speaker system into my monitor's USB ports should work?

But.. when/if I did that.. would I need a USB hub that connected both computers to the monitor? I only want audio playing from the computer that I'm currently viewing.. not both at one time.

I've never bothered to play around with my monitor's USB ports, so I'm not quite familiar with what it needs to work. I assume you need a USB connection going from a computer to the monitor.. right?

Or would it just be easier to pick up a better KVM that has an extra USB connection available?

I really hope I'm making sense..
