I suppose a Help Guide needs to be written about the audio renderers explaining what is and is not possible. I'll add to the TODO list.
There's no support for automatic renderer switching upon stream interruption. There is support for auto resuming MPD playback when a given renderer session or connection ends.
Plexamp, Roonbrodge and Squeezelite by default acquire exclusive control of the audio output and thus only one of them can be On.
Note 1: Squeezelite can be configured to release the audio output after a timeout via the -c option.
Note 2: Plexamp is supposed to only acquire the audio output upon playback but when it initially starts it hogs the audio output. This could be a bug but since PlexAmp is closed source there no way to examine the source code and no public repository for reporting bugs.
Bluetooth, Airplay, Spotify Connect and UPnP Client for MPD can all be On at the same time because they only open the audio output when playback begins but as mentioned earlier there is no support for sautomatic renderer switching upon stream interruption.
