Still this usecase seems fairly odd.

I see. So, the mixer will get the audio stream as usual from the playback engine and a separate stream from the plugin?  I guess I was thinking of the plugin doing everything, but this is much simpler.

soap:
It appears to me the focus has become one of the technical side of the question and not the fundamental principles of the proposed activity.

White noise would be noise masking, not noise cancellation and would dramatically increase the chance of hearing damage in loud environments because you're further increasing the sonic energy delivered to your ears, not canceling anything.
