Always something to discover or something I've missed long ago it seems <smile>.

I like the idea of being able to specify an airPlay device as your sound output 
device in System Preferences, that's a nifty feature that will save me a whole 
heap of time in the future.

What I've also found is that you cannot set individual airPlay devices for 
output as far as I know from other Apps.

For example if you set your Airport Express as your airPlay output device in 
Sound Output Devices then that's the only one you can use from other Apps.

I was hoping to be able to set a different airPlay device for Skype say, if I 
was in the kitchen I could set Skype to ring on my airPlay device I have out 
there thus guaranteeing I'd hear the phone ring whilst preparing meals etc.

As I say its unfortunate the airPlay feature isn't more flexible but perhaps 
that may come in time.

Anyway a nice start at least and it does mean that I don't have to use Airfoil 
to stream audio from audio sources - other than iTunes - to airPlay devices any 
longer from the Mac.
