This a very "old fashioned" thing. Sometimes there is actually switch built into the audio output jack. When you plug in the external speakers it turns off in internal ones. Because this is mechanical, Windows has no control.
Buying wireless speakers would help because Windows can control them. Bluetooth has a limited distance.
