I have a splitter on my line out on my pc on which i have my headset and
output to amp.
Now this causes the volume to be much softer, i guess due to added
resistance.
Can i do something to stop this from happening, such as, diode in line
or...
I know i can put a selector switch, but i want it to be as "idiot proof"
as possible.
Any suggestions, will a diode do it?

No! You'll end up with horribly distorted audio. Think about what diodes do
to AC waveforms and the answer should be obvious.
