If you want just the AirPlay button without the volume slider follow the instructions in Jilouc's answer and then set the following properties on the myVolumeView:

[myVolumeView setShowsVolumeSlider:NO];
[myVolumeView setShowsRouteButton:YES];

That will hide the volume slider but keep the route button.
