U2719DC, two PC, USB speaker, USB Type-C

I have two computers connected to the U2719DC. I'm trying to figure out the best way to switch between PC's without having to disconnect cables. I have a Dell XPS 13-9360, a Dell Optiplex Micro 7060, and USB speakers. I would like to set it up so that I can switch between the two PC's on the U2719DC and still have the USB speakers work. It appears that there is only 1 upstream USB Type-C. But ideally I'd like the keep that plugged into the XPS 13-9360. If I use the USB-C for the XPS 13-9360 and the DP for the Optiplex, when I switch to the Optiplex on the U2719DC, without the upstream plugged in, the speakers won't work for the Optiplex. Any suggestions as to the best setup without having to unplug the USB speakers every time?

For my notes, click my username and via private message send me the monitor service tag number.

 

I do not see how that configuration could work. Perhaps if you added a USB Type-C dock that had USB Type-C in and DP in port for the XPS 13-9360 and Optiplex 7060, then plugged the U2719DC and USB speakers into the USB Type-C dock out ports? Seems way easier to simply move the USB speaker plug to the other PC.
