Depends on the receiver. Some models have just a pass thru feature and connot decode the audio portion of the HDMI signal, and therefore will need a digital audio cable to get sound. Some receivers can decode the audio, so you will need to consult your manual to see what they say. If you need a audio cable it will tell you.

Will an inferior HDMI cable cause problem for my TV?

Because HDMI carries digital data, any cable will carry the data as well as any other. The digital interface means that the data is recovered by the receiver with no loss whatsoever. If a cable is so poor that it won't carry the data well enough for the receiver to recover it, there will be no picture at all. Any HDMI tested and approved cable will carry data flawlessly. All cables on sale should be made and tested to thos standards. Cheaper HDMI cables are likely to be light weight with lower quality connectors. They may eventually fail if they are being handled and unplugged continually but other than that, expensive cables have no benefit over the very cheapest of HDMI cable.

How do you connect surround sound to a TV?

There are essentially two ways to get surround sound out of the Xbox. Via HDMI or via optical (TOSLINK) out. If you have the component video cable, then the end that attaches to the Xbox has an optical out port. Simply attach this to the optical in on your home theatre receiver with an optical cable. If you want to use audio via HDMI, in order to get surround sound you'll have to have an HDMI receiver capable of receiving audio. In this case run the Xbox via HDMI to the receiver and then the receiver via HDMI to the TV. The HDMI will send both audio and video. If you have the official Xbox HDMI cable you can also connect the HDMI cable directly to the TV and use the optical out connector that it comes with instead.
