Google Home keeps asking for which device to use error

Ggolding — Thu, 18 May 2023 11:36:46 GMT

With the latest software update to Google Home, whenever I ask one of my google devices to play music it asks which device to use. I clearly say which device to use and it won’t recognize and asks again which device to use. The devices otherwise work and respond to commands. I tried resetting and even changed device names but nothing seems to work. Wondering if people are having similar issues and what fixes are. Thanks!

Sorry not to have an answer for you. But I have the same problem. You might want to keep an eye on my post in the Google Assistant Community. It's here:

This seems to have corrected itself. I did receive a reply from Google themselves in the other Community saying they were going to look into the problem, so maybe they did fix it.

Hope yours is working now.
