Did you find a fix?

Hey there JoseLuis10,

I apologize about the late response on this, thank you for being patient! I've been noticing this issue has been a bit more common, would you be able to submit feedback via Google Home with logs enabled? If you have already done this before, no need to worry about it! Chromecast built-in should be compatible with speaker groups, however, since it is an open-source software, it sometimes doesn't play nice with Google Home.

I'm sorry I couldn't have been more helpful, but if you have any other questions or concerns for me, please let me know!

Best regards,
Jeran

Hi Jeran,

At this moment, I don’t be in home; but I remember that I sent you this feedback in our first thread. 
Anyway, I'll send it to you in the next few days

Hi Jeran,

I’m sorry for my delay answering, but i sent the feedback through the google home app, mi email is jlterronesc@gmail.com

For the technical support team, I would like to add this img:

This is my google TV (Sony), in the device feature section, doesn’t  appear “audio” option:

In Chromecast, you can see “audio” option for the Device Feature section. I think that, this is the problem, because inside “audio option” is group configuration:

I have the same issue, and just tried to submit feedback per the linked instructions. However, I don't have a send usage & crash reports to Google option on that page.

We have exactly the same issue. All other devices appear as available to join a group, EXCEPT the Sony Bravia A80J. Did you find a fix?

[rob_mt]

Same exact problem. Everything - even the oldest Chromecast and Google Home - is working fine, but the brand new supposed-to-be-great TV is useless.

I have the same problem, can't add my Sony Bravia to a speaker group and i can't control the TV via my Nest hub. It always replies that the TV is not responding. I hope this gets fixed soon.
