Which driver mode are you using in Sonar?
The ASIO specification only allows one active interface, unless the interface driver specifically supports multiple interfaces at the same time. Very few do (RME is one) and the manufacturers that do only support using their own interfaces for the obvious reason that a manufacturer isn't in a position practically or legally to write a driver for a competitor's product.
Use two devices from different manufacturers at the same time and you've no chance at all of getting ASIO working. Other driver modes may or may not work, and the chances of getting the latency between the two lined up so it's the same are very, very low. You may well also run into problems with synchronising Sonar and the two interface's clocks which is quite likely to make all kimds of strange noises.
