I added support for this today. Check mplayer -v -ao dsound file.avi to get a 
lost of audio out devices. Then use mplayer -ao dsound:device=2 file.avi
Where 2 is the number of the output device you want to use.
(a new build is up in releases/win32-beta in case you don't compile mplayer 
yourself)
Please tell me if it works, I wasn't able to test it.
