Paired Mini speakers unrecognized as audio output on Windows 10

I am trying to connect my HP PC with Windows 10 with paired Google Nest Mini speakers. I can pair them together; they respond to voice command to play Apple Music. But I can get no sound when trying to use iTunes or use YouTube on Chrome browser that is up to date.  Windows 10 in Bluetooth devices shows paired speakers. Windows 10 in Sound shows no audio output available. Been looking at Bluestack 5  or an ASUS Bluetooth 5.0 dongle as solution. Would like solution so I can sit at my PC, hear YouTube video that tell me how to do this but I have no sound coming from my paired Google Nest Mini (2nd Gen) speakers.

You can't use Bluetooth to send audio to a speaker group I'm afraid. Speaker groups can only be cast to from a browser tab in Chrome or from a mobile app that supports casting.

David, I want to use the browser tab in Chrome, but here are the steps I understand I need to take: 

1. Connect one of the paired Mini in Home App

2. Pair the second Mini to the first. 

That should create a speaker group called Office Speakers. 

From Chrome, select Cast symbol in upper right for any active tab to cast to speakers.

Am I missing steps?

 

Thanks,

Here's how to create a speaker group:

Once setup, you should see your new speaker group when you go to cast a tab in Chrome.
