With the polish passport seems easy. If you go to the Belarus embassy in Moscow they'll give you, 99% sure, the tourist visa which is pretty expensive (at least for US citizens). There is a second issue when you enter Russia with one passport and try to leave Belarus with another one. They'll sort of get mad. I have three valid passports, three from the same country, and the one with the Russian visa has run out of space. So when they stamp it, well, they are using now the covers, as they can't stamp any other passport. When I go to Russia just for a week or so I use another passport and enter as a tourist, without showing my visa. And thats because Russian's mostly take into account your Passport Number but not your name... And each passport has a different number...
So I'd apply for the Russian, Kazakh and Belarussian visa with the Polish passport if I could...

(PD, in the 2nd line, where it says visa&NA=PL just change PL for US and you'll find the requirements for US Citizens).
You can get a visa on arrival in KZ and BY if arriving by air. The best routing. BUT as you've said there is no border control between RU and KZ, nor between BY and RU. I'd think there is no control between BY and KZ as well. And a flight between ALA or TSE to MSQ can be considered domestic. You better visit one of the embassies, or give them a call, and ask exactly how to do so...
