I just bought a MacBook Pro and got all of the cables needed to use my Vizio television as a monitor (Mini-display to VGA, VGA to VGA), and I also bought a headphone jack to RCA (red/white) for audio. But When I plug the headphone jack to RCA into my MacBook the sound doesn't come from either my MacBook nor my television. I have no idea what to do about this. So can anyone help me?

There is no reason to be rude..
Just have the audio come out of your laptop, while you use the TV as a display.
Maybe you have to buy something that Apple sells. I'm not sure.
So you have:
Mini-Display(DVI?)-VGA
VGA-VGA
headphone-RCA
Maybe the sound is on a different input/source. Try changing your source/input and see if you get sound. Play a song or something on your macbook and see if you can hear it/
I'm doing something similar to you but instead of RCA thingers for audio I use another 3.5mm connector (headphone) and plug that into my TV.
btw are you using this http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB572Z/A?fnode=MTY1NDA5OQ&mco=MTA4NjQ0NDc

Yeah, I am using that cord to get the video through my television.
So did you find the audio on another source/input?
