For my PS3 setup I have video output thru the HDMI cable, and audio output thru the optical port to the stereo. Besides this or just streaming the sound through HDMI, you could also use the default analog cables (red&white) instead to separately output sound from HDMI, although that will not be surround sound.

The settings menu allows you to set what outputs from what jacks, and you can use more than one jack simultaneously. Just get an HDMI to DVI adapter for your video. Since it's digital there's no loss in quality.

ohh i didnt know that. so i can do hdmi to dvi-d then use optical port for sound. What cable do you have for optical out to regular stereo? Because the optical out is digital.

By stereo I meant sound system. It needs to support optical obviously. It's light so it can't simply be converted...

If whatever sound system you're using doesn't have the optical plug, your only options is to run the sound thru HDMI or thru the analog plugs.
