Onboard sound And internal sound connectors

[dj]

I have just put together a PC with
Via P4PB 400-FL mother board with onboard 6-channel sound.
I have only found 2 sound input connectors on the mobo.
Since I have an ATI All-in-Wonder 7500 video card, a DVD player and a
CD burner, I have not figured out how to get all three devices to
utilize the onboard Sound.
How can this be done?

Am I missing more connector pins somewhere on the mobo?
Do I have to put in a PCI sound card ? The machine where these
components previously were, had 3 sound inputs on the sound card.
If I put in a sound card I assume I would not be able to use both the
soundcard and the onboard sound at the same time- is this true?

I would appreciate any thoughts on how to solve this.

Cheers

On my Mobo, there are three connectors in a row, one for the CD rome,
one for an Aux/AV board (hope to connect it to my tuner card), and a
phone/modem (has mono in/out), connected to my Modem (to hear
dial/connection progression). I'd forsake connection the audio on one
of the drives, and connect the TV card to the line-in on the rear.
You can build a Y combiner to connect two drives to one connector.

Use one of these.
