I’m looking to integrate “dumb” speakers into HA, and I came across these AudioCast devices on Aliexpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003331228026.html

It says it’s DLNA and Airplay compatible, so I’m assuming it should work with HA. Anyone tried that before?

    I’ve tried MA, and it worked well, but I don’t have smart speakers. Tried to cast it to a tablet where I installed a DLNA enabled app, but was very unreliable.

      I have a stereo hooked up to my server via optical and use MPD, just haven’t hooked it into HA.

      I was considering a similar setup with some small Pi devices around the house and streaming via PulseAudio either to attached amps or just bluey speakers
