I just updated to firmware 7.8 and it support airplay 2.

I connect the analog out(instead of optical) but the sound is awesome!!! I think the internal dac is very good.

Airport Express need to set to join Network and airplay enable.

You can even see it in your Home app.

Airplay is lossless thats why the sound is awesome. Like wired.

Im still using my 1st gen airport express for Airplay to my speakers. Works great even after 7 years long.

anyone use that for Time Machine for backup? can it work well?

time machine not supported via AirPort Express.

must use Time Capsule/AirPort Extreme new or old gen will work flawlessly.

Or use Synology or router service if available
