Nest Hub connects to bluetooth speaker, but no sound output

Hello guys,

I recently got myself a Nest Hub (2nd Gen) and I have issues making it play sound through a Samsung Soundbar R4-Series.

The connection to the soundbar is successful, both within the Home app and also on the Nest Hub and I can see it paired in the settings and also see that it is set as a default device for audio playback in the app, but when I go in Youtube's settings for output devices I cannot see my soundbar there.

The issue is that the sound comes out of the Nest Hub, not the soundbar.

I tried recreating the scenario with a different bluetooth enabled device and was not successful. The Nest Hub successfully paired and played audio through my JBL-Go 3 speaker.

Do you know why this happens with the soundbar and how it could make it work?

I appreciate you helping me!
