XBox HDMI Cable Help Needed

I just got an HDMI cable to hook up to my Xbox 360. Unfortunately, both cables (HDMI and the big A/V switch) won't fit together in back! I'm running HDMI to my projector and want to run digital sound to my receiver. Any suggestions/help?

Run audio from your TV?

If your TV doesn't have an optical out, you can "modify" the AV cable so that both cables can fit. Check this website Cable Hack

i think i remember reading somewhere that the newer xboxes (falcon chip), it will not output both at the same time. so if you have the HDMI plugged in, nothing will get sent out on the other.
