But how are you expecting the sound output to work? When the Mbox Mini is your interface the sound will go out of its outputs and you need powered monitors connected there. You might try an aggregate device (if you don't understand that ask) with the built in outputs, but I'm not sure Express will work with that, and even if it did I'd not recommend doing that, and you may run into problems. Garage Band is different, it either used an aggregate device, or split its input and outputs (you are *not* actually hearing anything via the Mbox Mini if it came out of speakers plugged into your Mac).

Start by seeing if the Mbox Mini works with headphones if you have them.

I had a feeling that was the issue. I thought I read somewhere that you could use your computers speakers with the mbox. Its no big deal though, I will just buy some monitors and headphones. I wish the bose speakers im using with my imac had the proper connections to use with the mbox. I was hoping to get around paying for monitors since I spent 2,000 on the iMac and 150 on the mbox lol.
