Google nest mini wont play spotofy podcast

Hi. For some reason whenever I try to cast podcasts from spotify to my google home mini they play as silent tracks. I'm able to play them without issue on my phone (samsung galaxy). I've tried casting a regular playlist which works fine and then changing to a podcast but the speaker goes silent as soon as the podcast starts playing.

If I ask Google to play the podcast it tells me it either isn't available or can't be played right now.

Please help

Hi pjwill02,

 

Thanks for reaching out.

 

We're sorry to hear that you're running into issues playing a podcast using your Google Nest speaker. To further isolate this, could you tell us if this only happens when you play a specific podcast title from Spotify? Have you already tried listening to other podcast titles? Lastly, could you confirm if you can still play music using your Spotify premium account?

 

We'd love to know more so we can try some steps to resolve this.

 

Best,

Princess

Thanks. It seems it's only some podcasts that have the issue. Music plays fine. All podcasts play fine on my phone but a few (the one I want to listen to included) play as silence on my google home system. I've tried my home minis and my Home Audio 

 

Thanks

Hey pjwill02,

 

Thanks for the information. Just an added question: Was it working before? Have you tried using a different podcast provider, such as Google Podcasts, to see if you will have the same issue? Also, please provide the title of the podcasts so we can try them on our devices.

 

Looking forward to your response.

 

Cheers,

Muddi
