Hi, Snapcast plays audio streams time sychronized on multiple devices over network using a server and a client component. The server picks up an audio stream from a fifo pipe, thus it can be combined with any audio source that is able to write to a pipe. The Snapserver is able to handle multiple streams at once. The assignment of clients to streams and their volume is controlled via a JSON-API. I am using it for some months now and it runs stable. I made an ebuild and will try to open a PR on Github.

Great to see this this in portage, thanks for adding it. Unfortunately its not building for me. I've reported the error in #668080 and included the error and ebuild that worked for me.
