... 3rd party integration would also allow a mode, where no popup
comes.

There is just one downside with such a mode: if the radio is put
instantly into 'now playing' the fallback mechanism are disabled
instantly.

So if the alarm goes off and then the network connection goes down the
audio will stop (and you might miss the short timeframe where audio is
playing).

Having an alarm popup (and thus forcing the user to interact at least
once with the popup) give a timeframe where the radio can check all the
time, if a stream is playing (and start fallback tunes if it realizes
the audio stopped for some reason).
