I'm trying to put together a cheap HTPC using an AMD Zacate E350 APU based motherboard (probably ASRock E350M1). Now, I was wondering would it be possible to connect my TV with my PC trough HDMI cable and use my TV's speakers as a central speaker in a surround system, while connecting rest of my speakers trough line out?

For what it's worth, I plan on using Windows 7.

Thank you.
