Yeah, this suggestion sounds fine. Your TV's audio out will still run sound through your receiver. However, if you are set on an hdmi switch, I still think a manual switch on the cheap will work fine. If you are just switching between when you play your 360 and some other device, you can just manually switch back in forth for when you play your xbox. I think the remote feature is overrated.
