I've got a couple of HEOS-supporting devices from Denon, which also support AirPlay. I wanted to be able to play audio from my laptop (EndeavourOS; aka Arch, BTW).

*Finding* the info was harder than setting it up: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PipeWire#Streaming_audio_to_an_AirPlay_receiver

As soon as I followed that, my HEOS devices showed up as audio devices in the sound settings. Looks like they vanish when the devices go to sleep though, so I have to figure that out.

It's not even that the devices are asleep, they show up in `avahi-discover` and I can list the info about their advertised abilities. They're just not showing up in the sound UI anymore.

My work laptop (a Mac) is still showing up, even though that's asleep too. 🤷
