AirPlay All System Audio To Apple TV(not AirPlay Mirroring)

I can successfully play audio from iTunes to my Apple TV.


I understand that I should also be able to select my Apple TV as a sound output destination in System Preferences so that all system audio gets directed there.


Apple TV appears in the list of devices however I cannot select it.


Anyone know how to fix this please?

Thanks for replying and trying to help Lanny.


When I try to select Apple TV it would simply bounce back to the internal speakers (or the last device I had selected).


Since posting I found a solution on another thread. The post from DC Soup on this thread on flushing the DNS cache. Everything works fine after that. I don't know why flushing the DNS cache would fix the issue.


It's great because I can now get audio from any app to stream to my Apple TV.
