My output jack doesnt allow me to use hoster at all, so I use the audio from an hdmi converter.

USB ports only use a wireless mouse. Do want to add an external hard drive at some point

When I plug into Output Jack it gives me a half a dozen options I select Headphones from that list and I get sound

I select stereo external speakers but that probably won't make any difference in your case, but you can try. I had a terrible time using the onboard sound card . I was always getting audio dropouts, and got crashes when I used a usb mixer.
Dell laptops seem to carry a much higher latencythan other computers, that has been a known issue from Dell.

i have used external sound cards before (USB) should I try that or what alternative do I have?
