Google Hub radio stops after a short time

Meg_12

All my Google Hubs are now going silent while playing the radio through Radio App after a few minutes.  The Hub screen is still showing the radio app and the channel I am listening to, but no sound

If I ask Google Hub to play the radio station again it with announce 'Streaming (radio station name) from radio app'. 

Google Nest has started doing this since the sleep function has stopped working.

Hi folks,

 

@Meg_12, @BeeBee, that certainly isn't the experience we want you to have with our devices ― for confirmation, what Nest speakers or displays do you have? Are they Nest Hub 2nd Gen, Nest Hub or Nest Hub Max? When the radio is playing, is it through a routine that you made which plays media when triggered? Are they in a speaker group? It would help a lot if you could do a sequential reboot first. Unplug the power cord of your router followed by your Nest speakers and displays. Plug them back in after 3 minutes or 5 minutes tops. Restarting your phone might also help.

 

Keep us posted.
 

Best,

Dan

Hi MrLova,

 

Thanks for the update. Yes, quick gestures lets you control your Google Nest Hub devices in an easy way. Glad to know that it was sorted out.

 

Since this has been resolved, we'll consider this thread complete. We'll go ahead and lock this in 24 hours. Feel free to start a new one if you need any assistance with your Google Nest speakers and the Community would gladly lend a hand.

Hi @Princesss it was @Meg_12 who started this thread not @MrLova. The OP hasn't resolved this yet, so please don't close this thread?

My dayghters device is the Google Hub 2nd Gen, I'll try the reboot procedure as suggested & get back to you tomorrow @Dan_A as it noticeably (to me) happens overnight when she's left her radio streaming to help her sleep.

She does have gestures set on so I'll try that the next night if the reboot doesn't help, thanks @MrLova

Hi MrLova,

 

Thanks for trying the steps. Could you please provide the cast firmware version of your Google Nest Hub?

 

To check which firmware version you're on, follow these steps:

  1. Open the Google Home app Google Home app.
  2. Touch and hold your device's tile.
  3. Tap Settings and then Device information.
  4. Under "Technical information," check for Cast firmware: "X.XXX.XXXXX." If the device is on Fuchsia, check for System firmware version: "X.XXXXXXXX.X.XXXXXXX"

Looking forward to your response.
