Nest Hub & Mini won't play YouTube Music Playlist

[jbrandt76]

I have an active YouTube and YouTube Music Premium subscription, and I have several playlists created.  My new Nest hub refuses to play any of the playlists.   It always returns something similar, but not what I actually ask for.

I've tried saying "play MY playlist XXX", "play my playlist XXX from YouTube Music", play my playlist XXX from my library", and "play my playlist XXX from my YouTube Muisc library", and a few other variations.

Every time it fails, and plays some other playlist.

Can you assist?

Same!! I'm getting so frustrated.

I think I found a solution.  I had to log into my YouTube Music account on the computer, then actually make a channel.  Once I did that and moved the playlists to that new default channel, it seems to work fine.

Same also... with vocal order : it intends to be difficult to found what will be the most logical & short name to a playlist to be executed fast as a result of the command i ask... as i intends to make a numbers of similar playlist that i want to remember easily, i get frustrated when it doesn't recognize one in the middle of my differents playlists: 1, 2 , 3. 
Also it can be annoying when it start play a playlist outside my personnal ones.
I would really like it works to relax from using manual devices.

Thank you in advance.

When I say "play *playlist name* playlist" it works for me. Hope this helps!

Hi Mike2850,

To confirm, is your Google Home/Nest device not playing YouTube music? If so, have you tried the suggested steps provided by @ScentofaWookie? You could also reboot your speakers/displays for about a minute. Restarting your phone also helps.

Check out these links for further information and troubleshooting: Listen to music on speakers and displays, Link your music services and set your default service
 

Keep me posted.

Thanks,

Dan
