Hey all,

My goal was to create a sort of surround output (mostly for music) at the same time (in the same room). So I could still use both speakers and have more and fuller sound in the room.

The good news is that after 2 nights of fiddling it works! 🙂 Older topics helped me allot to get it working

The bad news is that there is a delay of 2-3 seconds between the speakers, which makes listening to music uncomfortable. The homepod is always ahead of the Teufel with RPI.  
My setup:

- A new Apple HomePod Mini
- Teufel Ultima 20 Kombo (my old setup), connected via RP4

Can’t really find any solution via the forum.

Guidance is much appreciated!

Kind regards,  
Theo

I also have a homepod mini in my setup and would love to get it (at least closer) in sync. I can’t find anything about this in the forums or searching online. Airplay2 is now supported via Shairplay, but… ??
