With the outages this week I have decided to revisit synchronized multiroom audio. The important feature for me is that it needs to utilize the "cast" button within the Spotify/Tidal/etc apps because that's what my family uses.

Does anything exist other than the chromecast audio pucks?

Music assistant is indeed cool and can do multi-room, but you have to go to it specifically first.

Yeah, they have a spotify connect plugin that works, but chromecast probably will not be supporter because google holds all of the cast keys and esphome/music assistant/ home assistant would have to register with them (and probably play the fees) i think

Dang OK thanks yeah we need all apps (Tidal, BandCamp, Pocketcasts etc) not just Spotify.
