This week i have been unable to play RTE radio 1 on the Nest Home. It also won't let me cast RTE 1 from my phone to the Nest Home either. RTE radio 1 will play on my nest speakers and my LG chrome speakers. On the display, it brings up TuneIn and plays the "TuneIn" and then tries to load the station but then stops.
I have also tried to load all the other RTE stations and they haven't worked.
Nest Home (1st Gen)
RTE Radio 1, RTE 2FM, RTE Lyric FM, RTE Gold, RTE Junior, RTE Radio na Gaelteachta, RTE Radio 1 Extra
Newstalk fm, Today fm etc

I am having the same issue as well on Google Nest Home and RTE radio. It's working fine on other google devices using TuneIn, just not Nest.
I noticed that if I access RTE Radio 1 on TuneIn on Android phone, it works fine. However when I try to cast to Nest from phone, it fails, showing the station buffering at 0%, whereas without casting it working fine on phone.

Hi everyone,
Thanks for visiting the Community.
We're sorry to hear about what you are experiencing right now with your Google Nest speakers. Since you've mentioned that RTE stations are the only ones having issues with, can you check if you will also experience the same thing if you command your Google Assistant app to play the radion station to see if it's working?
Let us know more details so we can check on it further.
Best,
Princess

Hi, the BBC stations play fine as well as Newstalk FM, Spin 1038, today FM. No issues on the phone or Google nest speakers
Seems to only impacting rte radio stations.

Hi IrishAlan,
Thanks for responding. We can try to perform a complete reset on your Google Nest speakers, however, we can't guarantee that this will resolve this since other stations are working. It would be best to contact RTE radio to check if there are any issues on their end.

Princess

Hi Jake, I removed the nest from the preview programme and did a full reset on one of my units. Still can't access RTE stations. Waiting for an upgrade to be pushed to the unit.

No it is still not working. When asked to play RTE Radio 1 on TuneIn. It loads TuneIn and plays the ads and the nothing. It is waiting to load the stream. I've been using a Gen 2 mini speaker at the moment instead of the Nest mini
10-05-2022 11:29 AM
Didn't work for me.
10-12-2022 01:47 AM
Having the same issue with our nest hub. We have other speakers in the house and they work fine, the issue appears to be solely with the nest hub.
10-12-2022 02:00 AM
Same for me, working on all other devices, so unlikely to be an RTE issue if working on other devices?
10-12-2022 02:02 AM
I see someone else has opened another thread on the same
10-12-2022 07:29 AM
Having the same problem. Tried casting through TuneIn on chrome and the app, then tried rte app casting and nothing works. Tried factory reset and reboot but nothing worked. Is there any update or reason google has submitted ?
10-12-2022 01:45 PM
If I start RTE 1 on the nest mini I can use the home app to move it to the nest hub, but it won't start on the nest hub. This started happening to mine a week ago. Not sure that has anything to do with RTE?
10-13-2022 11:08 AM
Hi folks,
Thanks for responding. Has anyone tried the recommendation provided by Alex and Princess to get a word from RTE Radio 1 directly?

I've contacted RTE and there say there looking into the issue. Response was earlier today
10-10-2022 01:10 PM
On Thursday last nest hub stopped playing RTE radio 1. I remain able to transfer the station from one of my nest minis but the hub will open the RTE screen play the initial add and then silence.

I also have this problem - it started about 3 weeks ago, but I was on holiday until yesterday and I noticed this morning that it's still an issue. RTÉ radio stations play fine on my Android phone on the TuneIn, RTÉ Radio Player and Irish Radioplayer apps, and also when I ask Google Assistant to play RTÉ Radio 1 on my phone it plays fine via TuneIn.
When I ask Google to play RTÉ Radio 1 on my OG Google Home it plays, but when I ask it to play it on my Nest Hub (gen 1) or Nest Hub Max it doesn't. I can also cast RTÉ from my phone to my TV Chromecast, but not to the Nest Hub , Nest Hub Max or to my Google Home.
All other stations work fine except RTÉ (and I am in Ireland so no rights issues).
10-14-2022 01:55 AM
I was in contact with Google and they reckon it is a problem with the RTE platform. Was also in contact with RTE and they have logged an issue with TuneIn. No word back since.

It is still not working, so I think we need to keep thread open untill resolved.
10-23-2022 07:17 PM
Hey Pd66,
Thanks for coming back to us. A few questions: what country are you located in? Are all RTE stations not working? Also, is it working from TuneIn app?
Cheers,
Muddi
10-24-2022 12:00 AM
All questions previously answered in the thread. Based in Ireland, all RTE stations impacted, working on Tunein and working casted to all other Google devices except Home Nest Hub.
10-24-2022 01:18 AM
Yes, we seem to be all in Ireland. All RTE radio stations are not working on the nest displays. You also cannot cast from the tunein app to the display
Thanks,
Alan
10-24-2022 01:29 AM
But just to clarify Irishalan comments casting or using Tunein for Rte us working fine on all other google devices, with the exception of nest display.
10-24-2022 01:35 AM
Yes that is correct. Just casting to the nest display
10-24-2022 02:37 AM
Just a further clarification: this issue doesn't only affect casting - it also affects streaming directly via Hub devices (eg "Hey Google, stream RTÉ Radio 1").

I have sent the feedback to Google and also reported this to TuneIn.
10-28-2022 03:17 AM
Hi @Muddi
This is a problem specific to Google nest devices. It works perfectly fine on my google nest mini device
11-26-2022 02:18 AM
I'm another user with the same problem. I'm in Ireland too.
My Nest Hub won't play RTE Radio. I have 4 nest speakers. They all play it perfectly. I also got a new Nest Hub for another room - it plays it with no issues. It is a second gen Nest Hub.
The problem lies with the first gen Nest Hub.
