This works already for several weeks. Qobuz was very fast to add Chromecast to its IOS and I believe also to its Android app. With the sublime subscription you have access to hires streaming of your purchased hires albums. And they play on the Chromecast Audio in hires. However, there are some glitches. Some albums and even some tracks within some albums refuse to play. The tracks do not play consistently. Only when you exit Chromecast then they play on e.g. the IPad. Other albums stream flawlessly. Chromecast Audio is still quite new and suffers from bugs. So after playing 20 or so minutes it gets often unstable and you need to disconnect and reconnect. This might be due to some memory leak/problems due to uncarefully programming. I expect it to become more solid over time. At least it also shows that Google programmers have similar difficulties as Devialet programmers with Spark and Air. Hires streaming seems to be tricky.
I guess the glitches only happen with hires playback (I assume you mean higher resolution than 16/44.1) as I haven't experienced any glitches using Qobuz and Chromecast at all using the Qobuz CD quality service. All the albums that I've tried have played faultlessly and I haven't found any that have refused to play - I love it
