Assuming the second audio is MPEG audio - you can try the following command 
whilst VDR is playing the video and first audio over the DVB card:

pesdump APID2 | pes2aud_es | mpg123 -

Where pesdump is available from http://www.linuxstb.org and pes2aud_es is 
from the DVB driver.

If you have problems, then you should remove APID2 from your channels.conf - 
to make sure that VDR isn't doing anything with that stream.

I'ld be interested to know if this works.
