Google Nest Mini play wrong songs and playlists on Spotify

marcolopes — Fri, 15 Nov 2024 08:45:00 GMT

URGENT! RECURRENT ISSUE! PLEASE FIX ASAP! THIS IS VERY ANNOYING! PLEASE STOP MESSING UP WHAT'S OK!! THIS WAS FIXED!!

SAME problem described HERE: https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Speakers-and-Displays/Google-Nest-Mini-play-wrong-songs-and-playlists-on-Spotify/m-p/617412

(you should not LOCK topics, because they can be REUSED!!)

Since YESTERDAY, when i try to play "Discover Weekly" PLAYLIST on Google Nest Mini, it plays something else (an LP, a song, etc, called "Discover" or "Discovery", etc) and DOES NOT PLAY the "Discover Weekly" Playlist!

From almost 6 months i said "Hey Google, Play Discover Weekly PLAYLIST", and all was FINE!

Suddenly, it doesn't play the only playlist called "Discover Weekly" that i have on my profile!

What changed???

I could make it play ONCE again (but ONLY ONE TIME!) saying "Play the Spotify Playlist called Discover Weekly"! But now not even this complex command works!!!

This problem makes the Google Nest almost useless to play music!!!

Also, Routines won't execute.

The device tries to play something with the routine name...

I have a SLEEP routine, and the device now plays a spotify playlist called SLEEP!

It was already SOLVED by YOU and SPOTIFY in JUNE.

It CAME BACK last week!

P.S. I already have a CASE open (yet this is a general issue)

Commenting to confirm I’m experiencing the same issue as well and have been for weeks now. Incorrect playlists and albums are being played with similar words in them instead of the correct playlist in my library. No amount of troubleshooting as fixed anything, and I’ve tried relinking accounts, signing in and out, uninstalling, and repairing speakers. This is the exact same bug that was supposedly fixed back in June.

It WAS fixed!!!

Now it was reintroduced... just like many other BUGS that are solved and come back again.

This is complete nonsense...

Probably programmers are to blame on this huge flops...

Can confirm I've also been having the same issue for a couple of weeks now. It's happened in the past, lasts for a few weeks, then it is somehow fixed. Very annoying.

Getting worse really!!

In the last few days the play is even more erratic! Playing nonsense songs and playlists...

What the hell Google!

Why do you keep messing up situations that were already fixed???

Thankfully at least it seems like Spotify is looking into it. There’s an active thread on their forum at the link marcolopes posted above. I posted this info over there, but here’s all my device information.

iPhone 14 Pro Max

Current OS: 18.1.1

Google Home mini speaker

System firmware version: 437716

Cast firmware: 3.74.437716

Spotify version (current release): 8.9.94

Google Home app version (current release): 3.26.103

To be clear, there is nothing we as users can do on our end to troubleshoot this issue, as pairing and repairing speakers, unlinking and relinking accounts, deleting and updating apps, trying different phrases- nothing works to address this issue.

Once again...

Google Home APP and Spotify APP are not the issue here!!

The Google Nest ecosystem work without any app installed!!!

The Google Home App is needed only to CONFIGURE the devices!

The Spotify App is NOT needed for anything!! (the music provider must me configured through the Google Home App)

So... when Google ASKS for Google Home APP and Spotify APPS VERSIONS it's a RED FLAG about how they perceive how their own HARDWARE ecosystem WORKS!!!!!

Any progress on this fix?

Nothing changed...

Not even the routines can be executed using voice commands!!

marcolopes — Tue, 10 Dec 2024 09:11:03 GMT

All working as expected since yesterday!!

Please tell us what was changed and WHO changed it!

Was it fixed from Spotify side / Google side / or both??

NOT WORKING AGAIN TODAY!!!

OMG!!!

WHAT ARE YOU DOING GOOGLE???

WHO'S FAULT IS THIS???

Please respond Google. This is ridiculous.

Re: Google Nest Mini play wrong songs and playlists on Spotify

marcolopes — Sat, 21 Dec 2024 06:34:21 GMT

Yes! Nothing works again!

No reply from Google or Spotify 😠 https://community.spotify.com/t5/Your-Library/Google-Assistant-devices-re-direct-to-random-albums-with-similar/td-p/6042997

STILL broken!!!

This is nonsense!

Is this an issue caused by Spotify or Google (or BOTH?)

Not even Google HOME routines WORK!

If i say "Sleep" (i have a routine named Sleep) the device says "Playing Spotify playlist called Sleep"!!!! That's NOT what's supposed to happen! It should "play" the ROUTINE, not a Spotify playlist!

So... nothing was fixed. Is that so hard to do? You did it before!!! Why the delay??

My devices are useless and i need to know who's fault this is!
