THIS (http://www.amazon.com/o/ASIN/B001C53NJM/1.-20/) will work for you.

hdmi cables carry sound, why not get the xbox 360 hdmi with optical adapter? :) seems like an easy fix to me, nice monitor!
my 360 is like from day 1 and they dont have hdmi ports :(

Wow! Socks, that's kind of expensive. No offense. How about THIS (http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=108&cp_id=10830&cs_id=1083005&p_id=4010&seq=1&format=2#description) one instead? Instead of $30 this will only run you a little over $7

I own the monoprice VGA one, and it works fine, though on a friend's bought from monoprice, there is a slight ghosting issue. She may have just got a badly made batch.

That cable isn't hdmi. It's the standard proprietary cable jack.
