add another white wire to the other two and fasten it to the nickel colored screw on the combo. put the black HOT wire on the brass screw with the other brass screw - don't remove the jumper tab. Put the load black on the other brass screw opposite the other (two) brass screws. the outlet will always br hot, the switch will operate your load.
