If you try to connect two outputs to the same input, the two outputs
will try to fight each other and the one with the lowest impedance and
highest signal level will predominate. You should use a resistor in
series with each output to prevent the dominance. If they are both
earphone outputs, then use a 1k resistor. If they're line outputs, 4.7k
or more might work okay.
