I've been looking into doing the same thing to listen to the radio stations provided by my cable company.
There's a vlc plugin available at http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=189342&package_id=258357. Beta5 works with the latest firmware on my Solo. I have the plugin running on linux and windows. Vlc can be setup to redistribute the stream which you can then connect to it from SC using the tune-in feature. There are many sites that describe this in great detail. Unfortunately, it's a very messy solution, and changing the channel in vlc requires going into the setup for the plugin. I've been thinking of creating a plugin to stream only audio directly from the slingbox, and with the code available for the vlc pluging it shouldn't be too hard, slingplayer currently has an option for audio-only, so the option is there on the slingbox. The player might just drop the video frames from the stream, not sure yet. Still researching options.
