Without a screenshot it's difficult to help, but make sure that the music request is the last action.

Have you got another Nest speaker to play the music from? Try asking for a musician instead of a particular song.

Are you able to make and save a different routine?

You could try the the alternative automation page...search for "Assistant Routines" using the Google voice assistant on your phone.
