Snapcast Discover

Automatically creates a Snapcast sink device based on zeroconf information.

This module will load module-protocol-simple for each announced stream that matches the rule with the create-stream action and passes the properties to the module.

If no stream.rules are given, it will create a sink for all announced snapcast servers.

A new stream will be created on the snapcast server with the given snapcast.stream-name or PipeWire-<hostname>. You will need to route this new stream to clients with the snapcast control application.
