If you choose to get one of those usb sound cards, I will personally break into your house
and fix it.

Depending on how far it's in there, some epoxy liquid cement type shit could work. Super glue, doubtful... give it a shot though. Is it a laptop or what? If so you can probably pop off the keyboard and look in there to see if you can push it out.
If it's a PC, the motherboard most likely has a front jack connection to use for the front of some PC cases. Just open up the case and connect those wires if your case has such a plug on the front. If not you can buy one cheap and move the parts over... pretty extreme but should work. I wouldn't mess with magnets or touch it while it was on.
