Thank you very much for all your comments.

My problem is that I do not have two programs trying to use one card but
rather one program trying to use two cards, and the output on both is
stereo, which then in turn has to be mixed to be sent to mono overhead
speakers.

A card that provides software mixing and presents a couple of software
devices may do it.

For example, the carddeluxe presents its digital and analog ins and outs
as separate devices, and has a mixer function in the driver to assign the
separate ins and outs to the particular hardware interface. So you could
have both the analog and digital devices being sent audio, and it is mixed
together to one or both. Unfortunately it does not provide separate
control for left and right of each stream, so would not immediately serve
your application. There may be other cards that do that, but I'm not
aware of any.

Somehow though, I suspect that you're after a much cheaper solution than a
pro sound card.
