I have a MacBook Pro connected to a Apple Cinema LED display. My Companion 5 Multimedia Speakers are connected via USB to the display. When I disconnect my MacBook Pro from the monitor to go mobile the reconnect the computer to the monitor, I always have to pull out the USB cable and re-insert it. This is very frustrating. Is there any way around this?

Sure. You need to switch back to your USB Output device when you reattach your MBP. Just Option click the little speaker icon in the Menu Bar, and Select your USB Output.
