Do you really need a socket, or are you just trying to move audio data from one app to another? Check out jack and netjack. They may already provide the functionality you need.

I need to move PCM samples to/from alsa from/to a DSP board. As the DSP board uses a serial interface (UART) it would be rather cumbersome to implement this functionality as kernel driver. My solution should be a little bit similar to bluetooth audio as it also uses an alsa io plugin and a daemon that actually talks to different (hardware-) devices.
