I tried that; got a Linksys WRTSL54GS box. I put OpenWRT on it very easily.
PluseAudio isn't running on it yet (though they're trying) and Avahi isn't
either. In fact, ALSA doesn't work.

I ended up just running mpd right on the box, going via OSS to a USB sound
card.

It works, but I would have preferred that it just be a "dumb" pulse sink.

Folks might try the NSLU2: http://www.nslu2-linux.org/
