I've had good success using Connectbot/Squeezebox server.     First
setup the port forwards, then I use AOnline Radio App... to setup a
"radio station" to stream from localhost:9000/stream.mp3.     The
squeezebox server streams perfectly.  I control my remote squeezebox
using SqueezeControl app... again setting up 9090(CLI) and (9000) in
the port forwards.      

You can browse the library and play any song remotely.   The only hitch
is that Aonline does a good amount of local buffering (a good thing)...
so there will be a lag when you change playlists until the buffer
catches up.

Over 3G...be aware that when you receive a call on CDMA/Verizon..you
lose data connection......a bummer......so the tunnel closes.    This
issue is gone over Wifi, of course -- where I tend to use it more.  
But I have used it for a long trip in the car....before I got a call to
drop the tunnel (I am looking forward to LTE for this reason).

For me, when I disconnect....the stream.mp3 just pauses for that remote
player.... it will resume upon reconnection....kinda nice.
