The simply answer is that it is not possible. The UMS is an DLNA server which sends the content to the client which is responsible to play it.

Well it's not impossible, i think, UMS just can't do it.
In theory, UMS should be able to cast/push content to a DLNA player, that DLNA player could be some software on the server.
