That's exactly what I do Mike.
I've gone one stage further and have hooked up the outputs of the computer, TV & stereo ro an old, small mixing desk, so I can route what I want, to where I want. There's also a feed into the next room where the TV/Computer outputs feed into the stereo system.
This all began due to my 50th birthday party (a few years ago). We wanted music to be heard in the garden, but wanted to avoid having it so loud in the house to be heard at the top of the garden, so I eventually set up 4 seperate amp/speaker systems and fed them all from the pc.
Result - you could walk form the sitting room to conservatory to the different areas in the garden, witth the same music playing everywhere and all at a comfortable listening level.
We also switched over to the cricket commentary from the TV at one point during the day!!
