Rogue Amoeba does stuff like that, its really great software, but you have to purchase it.
Detour is exactly what you're looking for.

Detour nothin'. Preferences->General->Play through alert device. Set your alert device to be different from your speakers device and you're golden.

Note that you need two audio devices. This is true for Detour, too. I recommend the ~$39 iMic by Griffin, which I used before I had my Airport Express.
