Q: Multiple simultaneous speakers with aiplay

Has anybody got airplay to play multiple speakers simultaneously from an IOS device?

 

I have tried with an Apple TV and airport express with no success. It's either one or the other playing. I know it's possible from iTunes on my MacBook using the remote app on an IOS device but it's slow and clunky and I don't want to have to keep starting my MacBook when my phone or iPad are much more convenient.

 

I've tried the Whaale app only to find it doesn't play Apple Music even downloaded to the iOS device. couldn't get the radio player in it to play high quality BBC streams either.

 

Maybe I'm being naive to think that if my Mac can do this my IOS devices should. Or maybe I'm just missing the trick to tick two airplay devices at once on the IOS devices.

 

Back to Spotify and Chromecast I'm afraid until I can find a solution.
