      Why are you using the headphone output? Many computers have a line level   
   signal coming out of the back. This would be a better signal for your   
   Yamaha.   
      If these bedroom external speakers have an integral amplifier then the   
   line level output would be a good choice there, too. If these are unpowered   
   speakers then the headphone output might work. I doubt it will sound great,   
   though. Use the Y splitter and then make some speaker cables using RCA phono   
   plugs, zip cord, and whatever connects to the speakers.   
      I've no idea why your internal speaker isn't working. Poke around in your   
   control panel.
