Using DSub as a remote for nas->stereo playback

Hi all,

I have been using Subsonic and DSub for quite some time now besides my squeezebox setup and NAS.
Obviously Squeezebox is for home playback, Subsonic for streaming music at work and DSub for music on the road.
Since Squeezebox is EOL I want to use Subsonic for playback of music at home as well. Its search speed and stability are superior to the buggy Logitech Media Server.

I have hooked up an old generic USB sound card to my NAS and created a Jukebox player in the Subsonic web interface in order to play back all music form server on the stereo.
This works perfect when controlling the server via the web interface, but DSub unfortunately doesn't forward my music to my stereo. It only plays on my phone.

Is it possible with DSub to login with an account and designated 'Jukebox' player in order to use the player as a remote control for streaming music from my NAS to my stereo? It would be great!

Cheers,

Jebba

Press the RC button on the Now Playing screen and it should enable the jukebox mode the same as the web interface does.
