Play audio on external WiFi speakers while casting video on chromecast

[MRGr]

Hi!

(How) can I cast video to Chromecast, and sound to WiFi (Harman Kardon with Google Assistant)?

Is it possible to connect my Chromecast to the speakers and to split audio and video from there somehow, or to split audio and video up front, and cast video to Chromecast and sound to the speakers? 

Thanks!

That is not supported on most Chromecast devices.

The new Chromecast with Google TV (the oblong one with a remote) can sort of do this; they can pair with a Bluetooh speaker and push sound to that speaker.

Hi Jennifer, thanks for reaching out. I guess it’s not possible to connect my WiFi speakers to Chromecast, so I think the issue is cleared out for now. Thanks!
