Chromecast Audio from PC
Discussion
I have ceiling speakers in the room I have my PC in, they're wired back to an amplifier in another room that's fed by a Chromecast Audio. I can run wires from the PC to the amplifier at a push, but that will be a pain to do and won't work all that well as I would need to go to the amp cupboard to change the input anyway.
Is anyone aware of something neat for getting the sound from my PC to the Chromecast Audio? I've tried Chromecast Audio Stream, which sets itself up as a sound card. While it works in principle, it's a bit rubbish; the sound is very quiet, so switching sources means having to go and turn the amplifier down and it doesn't display the names of devices or groups and there are 15 of them, so finding the right place to play is difficult!
So any better ways to do this?
