I think that the solution involves the mixer property of ALSA sound (I hope you use ALSA, because I'm not sure that you can pull this trick with OSS). I think you should run mplayer on one audio stream at a time, but run 2 mplayer (one for the audio stream , the other for the description). The trick will be to use an ALSA device that can mix both audio streams. Try with the default one, then 'dmix' device (mplayer -ao alsa:device=dmix) If it does not work, you should ask the alsa user list for advice. HTH
