Sony OLED TV (built-in Chromecast)
Chromecast dongle (Panasonic plasma)
Chromecast Audio (Yamaha amp/spkrs)
Ask Google Assistant to play (YouTube) music on the Nest or ANY of these devices, no problem. Ask it to "transfer" whatever is playing to a different device it either says it will but doesn't or it says that this (transfer) isn't supported by that other device WTF???

Hi Steve888,
Thanks for visiting the Community.
Move music, podcasts, radio and YouTube videos currently streaming from your Google Nest or Home speaker or display, or Chromecast device to another Nest speaker, speaker group, display, or Chromecast-connected device.
Below are some ways to talk with your Google Assistant on your speaker or display when you move media from one device to another.
Note: This feature is currently only available in English.
To move media, you can follow these commands:
OK Google...
Hope this info helped.

Thank you so much for forwarding to me this page which I've read 100 times now.
It.doesn't.work.
Various messages including "I can't do that yet" accompany the failure of Google Nest to perform as documented. Seems like an "undocumented negative feature" as we used to call it in my software engineering days 😞
If there's a diagnostic protocol I'd love to know what it is.

Fine, but advice was useless. Didn't even read what I wrote. Nothing to do with Google Speakers, the "transfer (music)" voice command simply does NOT work as documented to transfer music between devices which otherwise work perfectly. Complete waste time posting this query.
