Use google nest mini and a chromecast 4 with google TV

I'm thinking about buying a google nest mini and a chromecast 4 with google TV.
However I already have a 4k monitor, without speakers, which I will use with Chromecast, I can do disney+, prime video, youtube... have the sound reproduced by Google Nest?

It's possible, but a bit tricky.

The two devices don't work together normally. But, you can tell a Chromecast with Google TV (and ONLY that model) to push sound to a Bluetooth speaker.

Here is how you set your Mini into Bluetooth mode:

And, here is a good YouTube video about how to connect a Bluetooth device to your Chromecast with Google TV:

Keep in mind that this is still VERY "first generation". It works great for most people and most apps, but not so well for others.
