The simplest way I know is to insert a 1/8" mini plug into the headphone port right before booting up. You can get really cheap ones with no wires attached at electronics stores such as Radio Shack if you don't have one (or headphones) lying around. Prolly less than a dollar. That was my solution when my daughter was a baby.
