If it doesn't "just work" when you plug it in, I'd recommend picking up an inexpensive extension cable to reach the back. Here is one that would work:

- Most monitors that have a headphone jack have to be plugged into the back themselves like your headphones would. If you look on the back of the monitor by the video/power inputs, you may see a small headphone looking jack there that is the input from the pc. Again note the audio connection from PC to Monitor is separate from the video and power connections.

- This photo illustrates an example of the audio-in port of a monitor with built-in speakers. Note that you need a cable (that probably came with the monitor) that has 1/8" (headphone jack-like) connectors on both ends to connect it.

Yes, exactly.

- The monitor would plug into the audio-out (green) plug by the way, same as where your speakers or headphones would plug in the back of the pc tower.
