Casting to my Google Nest Audio Disconnects

How do I keep my phone casting to my speaker from disconnecting during the night?

When I cast from my phone to my Google Nest Audio to listen to sounds while I sleep, it will sometimes  unexpectedly disconnect during the night and start playing the audio through my phone.  Also, the tone it plays to let me know it has disconnected wakes us up.  (I've asked about turning off the tones in another thread.)

Use case: Using the speaker to play sounds while I sleep.  

Phone: Pixel 5a

Speaker: Nest Audio

Hey ne1av1cr,

 

Apologies again for the late reply. I wanted to jump in and see if I could be of any help with the disconnect issues.  If you are still running into the issue, I would recommend re-adding the device back to the home network. This can be done with the steps below. Please let me know if that helps, or if you have any issues. 

 

 

  1. Make sure your mobile device or tablet is connected to the same Wi-Fi or linked to the same account as your Chromecast, or speaker or display.
  2. Open the Google Home app Google Home app.
  3. Touch and hold your device's tile.
  4. Tap Settings and then Device information.
  5. To change the Wi-Fi network, next to "Wi-Fi," tap Forget and then Forget Wi-Fi network. 
  6. Go back to the home screen, and follow the steps to set up your device.

Best regards,

Jake

I have done this and it did the same thing again.  It would be nice to be able to see a log for the speaker to show why it disconnected.  Maybe I could track it down in wireshark.
