There are two things: AirPlay video (like when using YouTube) and AirPlay
audio (previously called AirTunes). They have nothing in common. So that
AirPlay (youtube) works for you means 0 when it comes to playing audio only
(like what Shairport does)

You need to provide more information: which platform you are using (mac,
linux, windows). Which version of Qt was myth compiled with...

e.g. provide a full log with -v audio,playback --loglevel debug

And don't trim anything, you remove information that matters.

You should also play the file using Shairport, increasing the verbosity to
a maximum so we can see what's going on there. If packets aren't
transmitted using myth's airplay, it's likely the issue occurs with
shairport too ; except that shairport can recover while myth here doesn't.

There was an issue with some version of Qt on mac ..

So until you provide those data, no one can tell what's going on exactly.
