Similar thinking here. I went for the WiiM Pro which is half the price of the Ultra since I don’t use the WiiM’s DAC but that of the Devialet. Connection via Optical/Toslink.
The reason for purchasing the WiiM Pro was to switch to Qobuz Connect which Devialet was never going to implement and to have a reliable connection over Wi-Fi. I purchased the day after Qobuz Connect was announced and now my whole family is happily streaming to the Expert from any of their own devices which they could never do reliably in the past. Either Roon Server or Audirvāna Studio was not launched or the Expert no longer started streaming and had to be rebooted.
Now it’s all a thing of the past and is just how it should have been from the start and I’ve ditched my Audirvāna and Roon subscriptions, which allowed me to save quite a bit of money.
