For realtime audio, Pipewire basically solves this problem on Linux. It appears as JACK, Pulse and ALSA to client programs and allows seamless interop between all of them. It's slowly landing in mainstream Linux distros as the default audio solution. This means that without any special setup, both real-time audio software (which uses JACK) and 'normal' software (Pulse, ALSA) can co-operate on a single system with a single digital patchbay between all of them and the system output devices (including Bluetooth audio devices).
