Your statement suggests that you feel that software audio players and their projects are just a commodity. If so then by all means use something else and go to their Forum for support.
As far vendors go, if you look at the Raspberry Pi audio space there are only a few audio player softwares but there are many hardware vendors and a huge number of audio products. This "many to few" relationship would suggest that the vendors should be the ones proactively getting their products to the handful of player maintainers for testing and integration. Thats my expectation.
Currently there is only one vendor thats actively doing this with moOde and thats ALLO. They not only make some of the best audio hardware but they also provide top notch developer-level support to our nice project :-)
Other vendors could easily do the same but if they don't then they place the burden on their customers to provide hardware and dev support to the audio player projects. Good luck with that approach.
