That's slightly less obvious than plugging in a stereo output cable
from phone to sound card.

There are also bluetooth audio devices (headset omitted) that have
stereo outputs (here's one example:

)

A software only solution is more interesting though--good luck, I have
no clue how you might do it, but I'll be reading to know if/how you
do.
