Hi can someone help me with this problem?
My Google home is connected to my desktop but I'm unable to play music or use it as a speaker
This is something that started happening about 1 year ago,
The speaker is connected but is under other Bluetooth devices and I'm unable to use it as a speaker
I have removed the connection and connected again but is the same thing
I have also enabled pairing devices from the home app with the same result
The speaker is working normally with the normal voice commands
Can someone help?
Alsa I have factory restarted the speaker and added the network again with no result.

Thanks but that's not what i was going for
I dont want to use a cas app or 3rd party apps
This worked without a problem conected to Bluetooth without a problem for more than a year and it stopped without an explanation
If you know hou i can connect my Google home to py pc with Bluetooth without any 3rd party aps and not as a casting
Expectley hou im using all my Bluetooth headphones and speakers
