This is a perfect use case for MQTT, e.g. this library for ESP boards. Create a broker on the network (e.g. a Raspberry Pi running Mosquitto, and have all the ESP boards subscribe to a topic. When you want to play a sound, publish a message to the topic, and all of the ESPs should see it very quickly. You don't need to synchronize clocks any more because it's simply based on the timing of publishing a message.

While working on a personal project Komponist, I was due to update Mosquitto MQTT Broker due to a CVE and found some interesting changes that will impact me in the future when it comes to configuring the Broker. This post provides a solution to make the Broker compatible with future versions using new and less visited concepts in Docker Compose v2, namely:

Optional: Mosquitto, an open-source message broker that implements the MQTT protocol; this tutorial uses the public test server

I think he means implementation of MQTT protocol, like https://mosquitto.org/

Could MQTT work for you? You'd need a broker like Mosquitto, and then any of a number of MQTT clients.

Any reason to not use https://github.com/moscajs/aedes? mqtt is a standard protocol. I see there is an mqtt adapter for kafka, and a broker to translate between systems.

yes, we did it as well. We are using the aedes broker, wrapped inside its own module/service. Here you can find the broker lib https://github.com/moscajs/aedes

Any of the open-source MQTT brokers out there should do the job. I personally use Mosquitto for most of my projects, but RabbitMQ, Aedes or any other broker should all just work.

In Aedes, you can implement topic-level security with the authorizePublish and authorizeSubscribe handlers
