Meanwhile we'll probably implement some made up protocol for development purpose. Does anyone know of any protocol that would be suitable for this?

I would stick to some kind of RTP variant for your "native" protocol.
Library re-use being a potential win and relatively easy support in
other systems (like PA) should also be made possible by this approach.
