it might be possible with the later mplayer (1.0pre5 or newer) on
windows, using the -v switch to see if mplayer can see your multiple
adapters, mplayer -adapter 2 -playlist c:\playlist2.txt and in another cmd
window, mplayer -adapter 1 -playlist c:\playlist1.txt

good luck.

for syncing them together? mmm hard...
there is an alpha on mplayer's related projects page, but its for 
multiple pc on a lan.
