It would not be an ideal situation but it may work somewhat. Control Center has 4 HDMI input ports to connect source devices (like Roku, DirecTV, AppleTV) and 1 HDMI output port that will go to your TV. That HDMI signal has the video and associated audio combined. There are no audio output ports on Control Center so your monitor would have to be able to pull the audio off the HDMI signal and send it to speakers. In addition, Control Center can typically power up all the devices connected to it, switch between them, adjust volume, and power them all back off when done. You monitor and PC are likely not controllable (via IR) so you will not be able to leverage these features of Control Center. Control Center can also voice-search for shows on STBs and Streaming devices and switch to those devices automatically to play that content. Since you do not have any supported streaming devices or STBs, you will not be able to leverage those features either. Yours is not a typical use-case for our product.
