however there is no Paired Bluetooth devices under SettingsAudio In Google Home App.
Using iOS15.5

Google App version is 2.53.103

I removed and downloaded app from App Store, still the same issue (missing Blue tooth pairing)

see below the options I get get under Audio… different than what I came across while troubleshooting this issue

Hi elitebuilder2,

What type of device are you using? The labels you chose for your post show 'Chromecast (2nd Gen)' and Chromecast devices (apart from the Chromecast with Google TV) do not support Bluetooth connections with other speakers.

Hey there elitebuilder2,

The only Chromecast model currently that supports Bluetooth pairing is the Chromecast with Google TV. Here is a guide on how to connect Bluetooth devices to Google TV.

I hope that answers your question, and if you have anymore, please let us know.

Best regards,

Jeran
