I didn't mean for you to take me literally.  "Something like" a KVM
switch shouldn't infer I was suggesting he use one.  He clearly wants to
control multiple sound sources.  Using "something like" a KVM switch (a
device which directs inputs from several computers to one
keyboard/mouse/monitor) would probably do the trick.  Several other
suggestions have been offered (including a couple from you).  Nice to
see so many put so much more thought (and less animus) into their responses.
