Nextcloud.
And a subsonic app. There is also another protocol available so you have quite the choice for which you prefer. Currently using Tempo.

I picked up a Denon DNP-730AE network audio player on ebay and I run Tiny-DLNA on my server where the music files and playlists are stored.
Works great and sounds great.
I share a Spotify family plan with friends, but I use Zotify to make backups, which I then host in Jellyfin.
My problem is that I cannot find a selfhosting solution that has the nuts to spool up 80k+ hi-res, original sourced, flac files that reside on two 10TB drives through my ancient technology. MusicBee is the closest thing I've come across, but that is local, and it struggles. I stay around the compound now days so local is ok, but it would be nice to stream out on the back porch without cranking my stereo to 11 so I can hear. I have bluetooth options but range is an issue.
Try Ampache! I host 75k files with it.

I've just put it on an SMB share and use symfonium
people speak highly of this one. I'll have to do a little research
MythTV for the main storage, stored in folders by my genre.
All metadata updated via Picard.
Syncthing to replicate to a Raspberry Pi (2 or 3, I don't recall which) running Volumio with a DAC board to connect speakers to.
The Pi is in the bedroom, so I only replicate the genres that I want, which cuts down on storage needed on the Pi, and means I don't need MythTv / NAS / etc. powered over night.
I use Funkwhale, which I have liked, but my use case is just streaming music through my laptop and listening with headphones. I don't think there is a client available that will run on your Autonomic streamer.
Funkwhale does have a subsonic API, so you could use a subsonic client, but you mentioned that didn't quite work before. (Is that what you mean by __sonic? I haven't actually heard that term.)
Funkwhale is nice, but I think for most people it doesn't (yet) offer any useful features beyond what Navidrome has, and probably even lacks a few things that Navidrome has. Funkwhale's main appeal is that you can follow someone's music library via the fediverse, although there hasn't really been a lot of use for that so far. Version 2 is coming soon, though, and adds a whole bunch of new fediverse features.
that sounds cool! fediverse shit sounds great!
yeah my memory may be failing me but i seem to recall a bunch of things using an API with sonic in it i was lazy!
emby and shares. emby unlike jellyfish can mount remote smb shares right in the webinterface. proxmox/lxc and jellyfin is a pain in the ass you do not want.
that was a big choke point for me for a while also!
i keep this in my linkwarden!

Gathered all music/Audiobook Files on my Synology NAS, organized in folders. Beside, there is still a Lyrion Music Server (LMS) running on the NAS in a docker. Put the Squeezer Play Client on every possible device (Windows, Linux PC, Android, Tigerbox, Pi zeros) and streaming works well for me at Home.
Access either via Web or App on Android/iOS. I have enabled navigating in LMS via folders because ID3 Tags are poorly maintained in my files. :/
