If I connect to TV Audio Out will the volume still be controlled by the remote or will it have to have separate volume controls?

By default, the VOL + and VOL – buttons on the remote control for Media Center PC control the system volume on your computer, and the TV button has no command assigned to it until it “learns” one.

Follow the directions on there and reset your MCE remote to default. Then reprogram the MCE remote to power the TV on/off but leave the volume settings at default. It’ll then control your computers volume level and you’ll be able to hook any kind of speaker you want up and be able to adjust it from a distance. Or you can program the volume buttons using your receiver’s remote and control it that way.
