Lifehacker has discovered a nice little trick to make any app AirPlay audio compatible.

All you have to do is start playing a song (or whatever), lock your phone, tap the home button to bring up the home screen, tap it two more times to bring up the iPod controls, and then you'll see an AirPlay button. Just tap that and you'll be able to select the device you want to stream to.

another solution: while playing music push the home button twice. the background app menu appears. swipe to the left until you see the volume. at the right site there's the airplay button.

All you have to do is just activate app switcher. Then go to iPod control and tab Airplay button to choose speaker. That's it. I always do this. :)

I usually do that when I play games. 1). Play song. 2). Open game 3). Automaticly starts playing in my speaker sistem. (of course connected via Aux cable to Airport Express).

It didnt work with the tune-in radio premium app

Tune-In Radio Premium is already AirPlay compatible. I use it all the time this way. There's no need for the hack. Are you sure you're doing it right?
