You could use JACK, here is the page listing the apps that runs with JACK:
http://jackit.sourceforge.net/apps/
The 3rd one down is called "Oddcast", "an Icecast/Shoutcast streamer".
From the main web page :
JACK is a low-latency audio server, written for POSIX conformant
operating systems such as GNU/Linux and Apple's OS X. It can connect a
number of different applications to an audio device, as well as allowing
them to share audio between themselves.
I am pretty sure that JACK can take sound from alsa, do whatever routing
it want to or needs to, then give it to whatever you want. Including
alsa again, but I suppose that it could give it to Oddcast.
So freevo would be giving audio data to alsa. alsa would be giving audio
data to JACK (because it thinks its a sound card driver?), and JACK
would give it to oddcast :)
Keep us (or at least me) posted, I wouldnt mind knowing if this works. I
have a similer problem that will rear its head in about 3 weeks :)

Hi.
Although this question might be a bit off-topic here, I'm sure there must be
people here who have done what I want to do.
I have my freevo box in one room. Sometimes I'm not there, but I still want to
listen to music or whatever. Using x11vnc I can see and use the desktop, but
I can't hear it. I'd like to know whether there is some easy way to send all
the sound produced in the freevo box through the net and hear in another
machine, in the same way that x11vnc does. at first, I thought about setting
up a shoutcast server, but I don't know how to stream the output of an alsa
device to the server. Perhaps other people here have had the same problem and
have a nice sollution for this. I don't want to need arts or esd.
Thanks

Named after its country of origin 'England', English is a little known dialect
used by up to 1.5 billion non-Americans worldwide. Some interesting but
obviously incorrect features of the language include:
- queues of people
- wonderful coloUrs
- the useful metal aluminIum
- the exotic herbs (h-urbs), basil (ba-zil) and oregano (o-re-gaa-no)
- specialiSed books called 'dictionaries' that tell you how to spell words
correctly
Many people using this bizarre gutter speak also subscribe to the pagan belief
that water freezes at 0 degrees and that distances should be measured in the
forbidden mathematical system of base-10...
