As previously mentioned i did not have this issue before and it started around a month ago.

Hey shai_za,
Thanks for the additional info. Have you already checked other music provider to see if you're also experiencing the same thing? I know that you've already performed a reset on your Google Nest Mini, however, it's best to try to unlink and relink your Spotify account before performing a complete reset.
Keep me posted.

Hi Princess
I have unlinked and relinked Spotify however i still have the same issue , regarding another music provider i tried YT music but could not cast due to not have the premium package.

Hey there,
To further isolate the issue, please try setting up your device using a mobile hotspot. Please note that you will need two mobile devices for this setup (one will serve as a router and the other to be used to set up your Google Home Mini).
Keep us posted.

It seems like you've tried several troubleshooting steps to address the issue of your Google Mini stopping Spotify playback after a few seconds, but the problem persists. To narrow down the cause, make sure your Google Mini is running the latest firmware, and check if any recent updates or changes in your network settings might be affecting the connection. Additionally, ensure your Spotify app is up-to-date. As for the mention of Spotify premium mod for PC Windows 11, it's important to note that using unofficial or modified versions of Spotify may lead to playback issues and is against Spotify's terms of service. Stick to the official Spotify app for the best and most reliable experience.
