2nd gen doorbell will not live stream to android / google TV w/ built-in chromecast

Currently, no one is able to stream their second gen wired or wireless google doorbell to an android / google TV with built-in chromecast. 
I have the latest newest 2nd gen wired google doorbell as well as a wireless 2nd gen one (1 in the front yard and the other in the backyard)

I have a 2021 Sony X85J w/ built-in chromecast running Android / Google TV OS. 

I also have a 2022 HiSense w/ built-in Chromecast also running Android / Google TV OS. 

Neither camera nor neither TV will live stream. 
If I say "Hey google show front doorbell on TV" it says ok, streaming the front doorbell on TV. Then my TV will show a white screen w/ a camcorder and a line slashing through the camcorder.

Hi there, 

Sorry to hear you're experiencing this, as I can imagine it has been an inconvenience. I would love to look into this further for you. I have a great article that has some very helpful information that I would like you to look through and verify you are following if you don't mind. It is possible that with the new Nest Doorbell gen 2 (wired) it is only able to be streamed to Chromecast with Google TV or a smart display. Please let me know if you have any follow-up questions or concerns. 

Best regards, 
Brad

I agree, it does seem to not work w/ Android google TV w/ built in chromecast. Hopefully this will be a feature coming soon.
