Chromecast with plugin works exactly like a native Squeeze device and as
you say they are very cheap. Your Controller will see it as another SB
device.
If you go HDMI -> TV you will get a now playing display on TV
If you go HDMI -> Soundbar then no display and no switcher unless you
can make Harmony control the Soundbar inputs.

There is a third party Squeezeplay app for Roku but its out of date /
rubbish so I wouldn't even consider it.

Phillipe's plugin is well developed and just works after a very simple
setup

NB
There are 2 sorts of Chromecast - one with video (HDMI only) and
Chromecast Audio - the latter has optical and analog out.
