Unless your monitor is the same resolution as your TV, it's best to not use duplicate displays. Just use extend display to the TV and set separate resolutions. It's easy to drag your window from one monitor to the other.
I have a cheap Logitech wireless mouse and keyboard (EX90) which will go through walls.
You may want to set your TV to game or graphic mode to prevent your TV from over scanning.
To change the audio output of your motherboard or graphics card just right click on your speaker icon and click playback devices and choose your poison.
Oh yeah, for a video card maybe look at the ATI cards with a Display port. It will handle three monitors or TVs with a Display Port adaptor.

Thanks for the information.
Sounds like I should be pulling HDMI cables in my house then. Since most cards don't have multiple HDMI outs, I'm guessing I will have to convert a DVI or Displayport with an adapter.
