So then I ended up telling them to stuff it and that I already knew how to unlock the device and make the product and that I would continue on with out Sonys help.

Good for you. And that kind of reverse-engineering, particularly because it's a physical interface and not a software-based one, is not made unlawful by the anti-circumvention provisions of the DMCA. Stick it to 'em!
I'm curious though, why would the audio have to be decoded? Isn't it as simple matter of connecting the correct pins to tap into the audio-out?
