HowTo: Connect Android Audio Sink via Network to PulseAudio/ALSA

I want to be able to have the audio that I am listening to via any music-player or podcasting app -- a bitstream originating from an app -- be able to be directed via network to a "media PC". This media_PC has an amplifier and speakers attached and normally outputs audio from its own applications via PulseAudio to ALSA to the soundcard to the amplifier to the speakers.

I can find many solutions to allow audio to go from the PC to the mobile device, but cannot find anything that works the other way around. I'm not married to any particular protocol; but I do greatly prefer FOSS software if at all possible.

[pre]
<AndroidAudioPlayer> -->
        <AndroidAudioRouting [OpenSL, etc.]> -->
        <Android Audio Stream Daemon ???> -->
...
NETWORK -->
...
<Linux Audio Stream Client> -->
        <Jack / PulseAudio / ALSA> -->
        <HDAudio_device> -->
       AUDIO_CABLES -->
        Amplifier -->
       5.1 Speakers
[/pre]

The android device is rooted.
