EliteDesk 800 G4 mini
Windows 10 64 bit and Linux Mint 21.3

New owner of a 800 g4 mini with a question about audio. Love my new desktop setup and its performance. I use a pair of powered speakers plugged in to the front right headphone jack for audio. While this works well, I’m used to having a rear panel jack which helps to keep the cables organized better and out of the way. Is it possible to use the rear USB ports to drive the audio out signal? I’d like to feed the audio signal out the back if possible.

Thanks for your feedback...

SOLVED: Got a basic usb to 3.5mm external sound card off Amazon.  Works plug 'n play without a hitch in Windows and Linux Mint.  Probably worried a bit too much about this solution.  Thanks to any/all who took the time to check this post.
