I solved this problem years ago.  Just find a big old comfy wingback
chair somewhere.  Peel the covering off the mouse hand chair arm and
build a nice arm support to a level that will support your arm and
hand even with your mouse or desk.  Then build speakers into the
wingback parts and call it..."Frankenchair".  Matches my 12 HP
Frankenvacuum....
