5.1 audio Switch box?

I just got a Razer Barracuda headset and ran into a little problem

Since both my speaker-set and the headset use 5.1 sound (and of course connection) i'd have to switch all cables in my soundcard each time i want to switch between the two. Now i know there are 2.1 audio switch boxes, but have been unable to find a 5.1.

Anyone know anything about this subject?

Thanks!

I use the Psyclone PSC01, however it might be overkill for what you need. It's a 4 source/1 output box that has component video, composite audio, and toslink audio as well.

Hmm I basically need

2x black/orange/green jack connections (front/rear/subwoofer) since both speakers and the headphones have those 3 connections each.

And then be able to switch between the two.

EDIT:

could work? (same colors in same thing and then other end in soundcard, with only 1 of the 2 turned on)
