Sound Muted with some apps

[DBaad]

I have some trouble trying to watch some series due to that my chromecast won't play the sound from Star+ and Netflix but it plays YouTube and Twitch normally.

I've tried rebooting the device but it keeps happening

Hey there DBaad,

I'm sorry to hear that your Chromecast is not playing sounds in a few apps! This sounds pretty tricky to troubleshoot, so I'd be happy to help you out. Go ahead and make sure your Chromecast's firmware is up-to-date. Then, clear out the cached app data on the affected apps. Finally, if that doesn't resolve it, go ahead and uninstall and reinstall those apps.

I look forward to your response, and if you have any other questions or concerns for me, please let me know!

Best regards,
Jeran

Thanks, I'll try to do that

Hey there DBaad,

Awesome, let me know if that helps out, if not, we can try a few more things.

Thank you,

It didn't work, I tried to Uninstall apps an check for updates, but Disney+ and Netflix are the ones that keep muted

Hey there DBaad,

No problem at all! There is an interesting work-around I've seen work for other users, so go ahead and give this a try:

• Open the Google Home app
• Tap on your Chromecast > Settings >Audio > Surround sound mode > Stereo only
• Unplug the Chromecast, then plug it back in.

Let me know if that helps resolve the issue!

Best regards,

Jeran

Thanks for your help, turns out that some audio settings were enabled but weren't supported by the TV, now everything works
