Then when I booted my computer up again, it disappeared from the "Sounds" bar. I haven't been able to get it back since. I've tried removing the device, restarting my computer and even resetting the whole speaker.</P><P>Any idea on how to get the mini working as an output device again?</P> Wed, 23 Mar 2022 02:58:24 GMT https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Speakers-and-Displays/Google-Mini-is-paired-to-my-PC-but-not-showing-up-as-an-output-option/m-p/127743#M23603 cayly_chia 2022-03-23T02:58:24Z https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Speakers-and-Displays/Google-Mini-is-paired-to-my-PC-but-not-showing-up-as-an-output-option/m-p/127805#M23613 <P>You may have to ask the google mini speaker to enable bluetooth, again.<BR /><BR />It's designed to work on wifi, such as with spotify streaming - not as a portable bluetooth speaker (but you can do it, as long as you enable bluetooth and follow any needed steps to connect)</P> Wed, 23 Mar 2022 06:10:20 GMT https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Speakers-and-Displays/Google-Mini-is-paired-to-my-PC-but-not-showing-up-as-an-output-option/m-p/127805#M23613 Mussels 2022-03-23T06:10:20Z https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Speakers-and-Displays/Google-Mini-is-paired-to-my-PC-but-not-showing-up-as-an-output-option/m-p/127813#M23614 <P>I tried that multiple times.

Enable bluetooth, connect, play audio.<BR /><BR />If the bluetooth connects, the issue could be with your PC settings outputting to the wrong device.&nbsp;</P> Wed, 23 Mar 2022 06:36:48 GMT https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Speakers-and-Displays/Google-Mini-is-paired-to-my-PC-but-not-showing-up-as-an-output-option/m-p/127816#M23615 Mussels 2022-03-23T06:36:48Z
