Multi-Room Speaker Amplifier
Honestly the setup takes about 15 minutes in the terminal. Figuring it out initially was a few hours but I believe I documented it well enough for others to follow. https://github.com/badaix/snapcast/commit/1c7681635b2b78661f92523b32fecac5f394bb4e

I is there any self-hosted music server that can be controlled by a web app?
Not sure if I'm mis-understanding what you're after, but https://github.com/badaix/snapcast sounds like it might be what you need. It functions like SONOS and other multi-room audio systems. You install a snapcast server on a machine, then install clients on machines hooked up to speakers, and it can sync and play music between the clients remotely on the network. Snapcast can be hooked into many audio systems: Spotify, Mopidy, AirPlay, allowing you to play audio from any of them. You can also install the server and client onto a single machine to act like a glorified WiFi/Bluetooth/AirPlay speaker. A popular pairing is mopidy and snapcast: https://bacardi55.io/2020/04/18/home-automation-part-3-multi-room-music-and-sound-system-with-mopidy-and-snapcast/

Multiroom audio setup advices
Since the speakers use different protocols, hence I can't use their embedded multiroom capabilities, I used Snapcast for the synchronized playback, which is handy, since via Home Assistant (but not only with it) you have the possibility to (un)mute or regulate the volume of a single speaker.

After a lot of additional search i found Snapcast which can consume UPnP and seems to do exactly what i want. I have to look into it more thoroughly though.

Ask HN: Why isn't there a standard network audio protocol?
There are some projects like Snapcast[1] or SoundSync[2] (disclaimer: I'm the creator of Soundsync) to let multiple devices communicate together on the same network. The transmission-side isn't that complex: you choose an audio codec, transmit chunks of data and add a synchronization layer (to keep multiple outputs in sync and to correctly delay video playback to match the soundtrack). The bigger problem is building an ecosystem big enough to make it attractive. Bluetooth sucks but is everywhere.

Music Hub
but https://github.com/badaix/snapcast, https://sound.balenalabs.io/, https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/PulseAudio/ and https://github.com/mopidy/mopidy should give a good basic frame... i only need to find out how to puzzle or combine them to make them work. Thank you!

One Raspberry + multiple USB sound cards + Spotify + multiroom
I'm a big fan of snapcast. One Pi can act as the server (I use an rpi2 for mine) and can send audio out to the clients in sync. Not sure about Orange Pi compatibility but I think it'd work as long as it's running some debian derivative.
