Here's a patch that does that.  The sampling rate and channels are set per
device, which is probably the wrong place for them, but otherwise I'd have to
use either static or global variable, and both are bad.  Anyway, this version
still prints out the device info at the beginning even though it doesn't
actually open them until it opens the first file.

Yes, that's quite definitely broken with this version.  On the other hand,
writing two different-samplingrate stream to the same wav won't work too well, I
don't think...

By the way, how do you get ogg123 to open more than one device?  It looks like
it will only open the last one on the command line.
