How Do You Connect External Sound Cable -- Video Card to Sound In

I just installed an ATI All-in-Wonder 128 16 meg video card
in to my Dell Optiplex GX1 computer running Windows 2000 Pro and the TV tuner works fine but no sound. I am having trouble figuring out how to connect the external sound cable.

I may have misplaced a cable but the only cables I appear to have
are the:
1. S-video to s-video cable
2. Regular male to male cable
3. ATI Input Adapter

1. The video card only has s-video plugs. So do I need to purchase an s-video to regular sound cable?

2. Or is there another way to hook up the sound to the integrated sound
card on the motherboard?

You can't go from S-video to a 1/8" mini jack.

Take a look here:
