Does Airport Express need to be configured to allow AirPlay to work between an iPhone 4s and an iPad2? 

 

Also, attempting to use Airplay with iOS7 shuts off sound to the speakers while allowing sound thru the ear buds!  The fix was to restart by depressing the lock switch (opposite the sound out port).

iPhone 4S, iOS 7

    You need a minimum of three things for AirPlay:

    1. An iTunes host. This can be a Mac, PC, or iOS device.
    2. A wired or wireless network.
    3. An AirPlay Speaker. This can be an AirPort Express, Apple TV, or a AirPlay-Ready device.

     

    Is your goal to stream between two iOS devices?
