Play audio from libreelec on another RPi

Hi
I have 2 RPi. One for video and another for domotic, music,...
I want to play audio from libreelec on another RPi.

Instalation :
- RPi 3 (LibreElec) --HDMI--> Screen --> Speakers
- RPi (Raspbian) --Analog--> Hifi system

For windows I found SWYH (not tested) that works with upnp. I want the same with my RPi.

Or :
Play url audio stream from libreelec like 192.168.1.xx:xxxx/stream.mp3 to raspbian
Or a solution with kodi plugin,daap... other ??

Do you have any solution for me?
The best is libreelec for front sound and Raspbian for the back sound.

This can be done using pulseaudio

On my Raspberry Pi B, pulseaudio doesn't work. Alsa does not works when Pulseaudio is installed. I completely remove it
No other solution?
Otherwise I will be tried a new install of raspbian.

Just use pulseaudio on both systems.

I follow the instructions here Pulseaudio - LibreELEC

That works, I have sound on the other RPi with pulse, but I have no sound on libreelec with hdmi.

After reboot pulse not work. And I have not success work it since.
I do not see who does not works!

You have to use dtparam to use pulseaudio with hdmi

Code

mount -o remount,rw /flash
nano /flash/config.txt

then at the end of the file add

Code

dtparam=audio=on

to restore it to the old way you just remove that line
