Using UPnP like you suggest you lose a lot of features.  Including sync,
etc.  Lot of upnp players are also fairly difficult with different
formats etc. 

I would suggest the best solutions is probably getting a WandBoard and
install the Community Squeese OS on it (if you can download it).  Or
install some form of linux and squeezelite on it.  That way you get
something as close as possible to a touch less a screen.  If you have a
TV nearby you could probably add a now playing screen / browser / etc. 


You can then pass digital to the DAC of your choice from the wandboard.


I have not tried this myself.  I am actually waiting for a wandboard
package to be delivered.  I chose it for other things but as it seemed
that lots of people are using it to replace squeezeboxes I thought that
it would be good device for this reason also once my SBs die.
