I ended up buying a USB sound card so it can plug into the back of the laptop.

Yeah they are awful, unfortunately the laptop doesn't have USB's on the back either!
They seem to think it's better for the home user as my Latitude D631 has them on the back so they at least understand business users want rear connectors.
