Is anyone else having problems with YouTube Music on Google Nest speakers/devices over the last week?

My setup has worked fine for several years, but for about a week YouTube Music has completely stopped working across all Nest speakers.

Important details:

* Spotify works perfectly (but i don't have a subscription)
* Radio works perfectly
* Google Assistant works
* Devices are online and visible in Google Home
* The issue is ONLY with YouTube / YouTube Music

Symptoms:

* Voice commands acknowledge the request but nothing plays OR I get a voice message saying there has been an error.
* Casting from the YouTube Music app fails

Things I have already tried:

* Factory reset of speakers
* Removing/re-adding devices
* Rebooting router
* Unlinking/relinking YouTube Music
* Checking default music provider
* Confirming devices are on the same Wi-Fi
* Casting Spotify successfully (works fine)

None of this has fixed the problem.

There seem to be a lot of similar reports online recently, so I’m wondering whether this is a Google-side issue rather than a local setup problem.

Would appreciate confirmation from Google or other users experiencing the same thing.

Same has happened to me. Same troubleshooting steps, same results.
