Well, this isn't so trivial as it sounds.

If the application 1 (aplay) needs to be output actually, it means to
split the signal to two interfaces, one to voip program, and another
to the output channel.  If app1 doesn't have to be heard, then you can
use a loopback device (snd-aloop driver included in alsa-driver tree)
and bind with the mic device using multi plugin.

The latter case, split from voip to app2 and HP output, can be also
done via multi plugin + aloop device.

But, this kind of infrastructure could be better done with a proper
daemon, such as JACK, I guess...
