Why can't group 2 Nest Hubs to play Spotify

mariano — Tue, 14 Dec 2021 12:17:15 GMT

I have 2 Nest Hub 2nd gen and 3 minis. If I create a group between one Nest hub and one mini, then I can play Spotify on them using the group. But if I create a group between the two Nest Hub and try to play Spotify to the group, then Spotify only reproduce the music in one of them. If I tried to cast from the Spotify app on mi Pixel phone, then one of the Nest Hubs says "sorry, music stops since Spotify account is being use on another device". I have a Spotify premium account. It seems that is identifying the group of the 2 Nest Hubs as different devices. Does anyone know how I can solve this or if it is really a limitation? Thanks

I was doing housework this weekend, and had 1 Hub Max, 2 Hub 2ndGen, 1 mini and a Chromecast all playing Spotify as a group.I'm in the states, so I don't know if that is a limitation.

It's solved. when I did the initial configuration I had Spotify free. It seems it has a problem recognizing my post-premium upgrade. So I unlinked my Spotify account, I factory reset the devices and reconfigured them from the beginning, this time it did something different when I linked my Spotify account and now it works.
