Synchronized audio playback on computer and phone (via Wifi or Bluetooth)

I'd like to play audio on my computer in the living room and continue to listen to it when I go to the kitchen.

Is there a possibility to play audio on the computer and send it to the phone at the same time?

I have created an HTTP stream with VLC on my computer. The stream works fine locally. Then I tried to open it with A Online Radio on my Android phone which is connected to the same wifi, using the local IP address of the computer and the port for the VLC stream: http://192.168.2.4:8081. This always fails (The error message is simply "Entered channel URL not working").

Does anyone know an app that can open such a stream? Am I doing something wrong? Or is there any other method to achieve what I want?

I am running Linux on the computer and Android 2.3 on an HTC Desire HD phone.
