If you can't fix it, blow it up and deny that you saw anything.

Buy a new one with a remote? If your current sound card does not support a remote control then you can't just buy a remote for it.
Here are some sound cards that come with a remote: NewEgg.com
There may be other solutions (such as buying new speakers w/ a remote), but this would probably be the cheapest.
