Chromecast Audio Issues

[Sw103]

When playing music and casting to multiple speakers Chromecast randomly starts repeatedly connecting / reconnecting to several of the speakers making the loud connection sound several times per second until the speaker is turned off. I’ve done factory resets on all speakers  and reset Wi-Fi as well. Happens randomly and have not been able to troubleshoot.

Hey there Sw103,

I apologize about the late response, thank you for your patience on this! Are you still experience speaker group issues? If so, I'd be happy to help out where I can, since I know it's a frustrating issue. Speaker groups containing non-Google speakers or Cast-based devices may not work properly in speaker groups if they don’t receive a software update. You may notice that those devices don’t play audio in a speaker group. Third-party Cast devices like soundbars with Chromecast built-in will need to be updated to Cast firmware 1.52.272222 and above. Note: Not all device models will receive software updates. As a result, they may no longer work in speaker groups and will need the Device Utility app to complete each setup.

I hope that answers your questions, and if you had any more questions, please let me know.

Best regards,
Jeran
