Speaker Groups Not Working

4CC2 — Sat, 18 Dec 2021 20:16:02 GMT

Hello - Our Nest Mini and Nest Hub are part of a speaker group and were working fine until ~ 2 weeks ago. Now, they work fine individually but not in a group. I have reset each, reset the network, deleted and recreated the group, to no avail. The Next Hub will play music when requesting the group; the Mini will not. Please let me know the solution. Thanks!

Having a similar issue, since a or two weeks, i can't voice control the Speaker group anymore, to change volume, very annoying!!!! It tells me, that the device can't be controlled.

Same problem here with the nest hub 2nd gen. I have many problems with this device from Google. At the moment it is very buggy.

I'm having the same problem. Google support tells me the problem is with the network but I don't buy it.

How could this ever be related to network issues? A lot of users are experiencing this issue. For me it worked at first and all over sudden it doesn't work it all. Same network configuration and I changed nothing. So this just a stupid google support answer nothing more.

Similar issue, want to create new speaker group, but my Nest devices (Nest minis paired, Nest WiFi point) do not appear in the selection options for the new group. Only the older Google devices.

I have two existing groups, both of which include the Nest WiFi point, and the Nest mini pair, but I cannot add them to a new one.

Agreeing with all, two Nest Audio speakers are part of a group, but only one will play.

Yes. None of my speaker groups work. I can set up groups but only one speaker plays. I've tried resetting devices and setting up new groups but problem remains. Google need to sort this out. It is core functionality that should work reliably.
