Q: 27" won't let me switch sound to headphone

Hi,

I just bought a 27 inch Cinema Display and I'm having an issue where OS X won't let me switch from the display's USB sound to my headphone jack (where I have external speakers connected).

When I go to the Sound preferences item and change the device in the Output tab, it switches back almost instantly to "Display Audio".

I looked at the Console and I'm getting this error every time I try to change the output device:

System Preferences[476] Error who? trying to set dOut device to 268


Any ideas on what's happening and how I can fix this?

MacBook Pro 17-inch, 2.8GHz, 4GB RAM, 500GB HD, Mac OS X (10.6.6)
