Hello all,

I have speakers of decent quality connected to my Linux pc which I use for gaming.

I want to be able to use the same speakers when I watch TV. I currently have a Chromecast with Jellyfin client running. Jellyfin is actually running on the Linux pc I mentioned earlier.

What would be the best way to play the audio from the tv content I’m watching from those speakers?

I was considering if it’s possible if pulseaudio could be used in a client server model, and somehow have something like Kodi use it?

I am willing to replace my Chromecast with a raspberry pi or a similar device if it solves this issue.

    back in the days I had my Linux-PC run as a bluetooth-sink, that’d work for directly connecting some chromecast to the pc

    but if you’d have some audio-out on your TV (or whatever station between your chromecast and tv) then you could connect your line-in on your PC to that (and have a much preferable cable connection)
