audio in/audio out you need technology that's not yet available to the
broad public - at least not to the usual prices. Check out the AVB
specification (IEEE 802.1).
In the broadcast/studio segment, transport over ethernet is already in
use by some manufacturers.
If a standard, like AVB IEEE 802.1 is in place, or a draft proposed,
then we'd be served well by aiming for it. If not, then learning
from what's out there would be prudent. Whatever is done,
implementing appropriate abstraction levels in the libraries, API,
etc. are a must to minimize rototilling the entire implementation.
