Secondary Audio Output with Fixed Volume #4171

Is your feature request related to a problem? I have physical speakers and FM audio incorporated into my show. I use xSchedule volume adjustments throughout the evening to reduce the speaker volume, but this volume adjustment also affects my FM transmitter and transmission quality suffers when the input volume is very low.

Describe the solution you'd like I'd like the ability to play the audio simultaenously on two separate devices. One of these would be controlled by the xSchedule volume controls but the second output device should have an option to have a fixed volume (effectively "line out") so I can feed that output to my FM transmitter.

Describe alternatives you've considered Workaround: Send higher volume output from xSchedule, split the audio in my physical audio mixer, then adjust the speaker output down while leaving the FM output at normal volume. This doesn't allow me to use the xSchedule volume controls and I can't automatically change volume throughout the evening.

This use case would be very limited. Could you get a PI and run FPP? It can be a secondary audio source.
