No, I dont think there is an app for Android that lets you stream out
audio/video that way. I have searched for that kind of solution also.
What i do now is using pulseaudio from a linux machine and stream to
my main frontend. The only airplay app on android that i have been
able to get going is Imediashare. Imediashare works pretty god for
sreaming video and audio but youtube seems not to work :=(
