Try connecting your audio cables into a set of external speakers to make sure you are getting sound. This will help to diagnose where the problem lies.

It depends if your DVD HT system allows for separate audio inputs.....if it does it will have a place where 2 phono (audio) connectors can plug in....one red one and one white one, so you would have 3 video cables running to monitor and 2 audio to HT system

However, you are probably better off getting a phono-to-3.5m (mini jack) cable that will allow you to plug in the 2 audio leads into that cable, and then plug the extra cable into the back of your monitor (I am assuming it has a 3.5mm audio in port....similar to the audio out port that you would plug headphones into etc)
