Mplayer won't AFAIK (someone want to please tell me this has changed :) ). 
only mencoder supports the btaudio module. 

There is a way to do this with sox. 
try either:
"sox -t ossdsp /dev/dsp1 -t ossdsp /dev/dsp2"
or leave off the second "-t ossdsp"
This may lead to a very slight audio offset if using any filters.

My solution is to record the video and at the same time play it back (of 
course, generally I am trying to record the video input at the same time)
