In theory, it is possible to write a driver for Hallon that allows you to stream audio directly to any AirPlay receiver.

Did some initial homework, and it appears one needs to support the AirPlayv2 protocol in order to get spotless playback.

See git.zx2c4.com/Airtunes2/about for protocol information.

There is also elcuervo/airplay — it does not appear to support audio streaming (at least no mention of it in the readme), but it'd be interesting to see where the author has found out details of the protocol.
