Computer A = Fedora 8
Computer B = Fedora 8

On Computer A I have headphones connected to my speaker jack and is where I listen to my music. However, I store also music on Computer B and have no speakers connected to the soundcard.

What I want to know is, is it possible to say double click on an mp3 file on Computer B and have it output the sound through my network to the headphones connected on Computer A's soundcard?

And also (not essential) is this also possible if Computer A is running Windows?

Have you looked into VideoLan?  [ http://www.videolan.org/ ]

From their website:

   It is a free cross-platform media player
It supports a large number of multimedia formats, without the need for additional codecs It can also be used as a streaming server, with extended features (video on demand, on the fly transcoding, ...)

I'm a complete yutz wrt multimedia and Linux but VideoLan has given my desktop life. Just for the heckuvit I've run multiple instances so I could listen to songs "in the round".

It runs very nicely on a 1G 512 white box.

Highly recommended.
