Is it possible to run two distinct soundcards at the same time ?

$ waveplay filename > /dev/audio0

didn't work but I got some help and 

$ waveplay -c filename > dev/audio0

outputs the pure data stream to audio0, while 

$ waveplay -f /dev/audio0 filename

outputs coherent audio to audio0
/dev/audio2 is totally unaffected by this operation :)

thankyou for the help
