What's the name of the cable needed to give sound to the TV (while using tv out?)

[gnuel3]

I discovered that tv out on my Radeon 8600 LE doesnt transfer the sound as well (I thought it would for some reason) and now I need a cable for the sound as well. Anyone have the name of it? I found it by a google search on ati's site, but cant seem to find it again. My sound card is a Vortex 1 btw..

Need some more info, there are various cables from PC periphs for sound. Most common are 1/8'' mini-plugs to 1/8'' mini-plug if it is from peripheral to peripheral (TV tuner to sound card). If its from tuner to speakers or a receiver, you'll need a mini to RCA Y adapter. There are others like optical toslink or Coax, but I don't think they apply to something coming from a TV tuner card.

More info.. well, I'll like to watch divx/vcd on my TV, but the tv out only does the picture and not the sound so I'll like to have have sound as well... Did I make it more clear? heh

If you can't find a 25' Y adapter, you will probably be able to find a 25' audio cable extension to make up that extra length.
