Google Nest volume issue with YouTube Music

[DW92]

I've recently experienced a volume inconsistency when casting music from my YouTube Music app (an Android/Google Pixel 6 phone) to my Google Nest Audio speaker.

I tend to play albums in full via YouTube Music, and when I start from Track 1, the volume is as I expect it to be (I usually have the speaker volume between 60 and 70%). However, as it segues into Track 2 and beyond, it will generally be significantly quieter, even when I haven't adjusted the volume at all. Sometimes even when shuffling music on playlists, some tracks will be exceptionally quiet while others will be deafeningly loud and it can startle me while I'm working. 

I recently reset and reconfigured both my Google Nest Audio speakers to my network, which temporarily fixed the issue, but the problem has come back again. 

For context, I don't suspect there is an issue with YouTube Music, because I connect a set of Bluetooth headphones to them for when I'm exercising, and the volume stays consistent throughout my session with no issues. 

Has anyone else had this issue or similar? Any advice on how I could potentially fix it would be greatly appreciated!

Hi DW92,
 

Thanks for posting and for being a step ahead of us. 

I know how it feels when something isn’t working as it should, so let’s get this resolved. It looks like you've already done a good amount of troubleshooting with this issue. If you don't mind, could you create a new home and set up your Nest Audio there, then observe if the issue will happen again? Check the steps below on how to create a new home. 

1. Open the Google Home app .
2. At the top, tap Add .
3. Tap Create new home.
4. Follow the steps.

Note: You can have up to 5 homes in your account.

Looking forward to your response.

Regards,

Juni
