I can't play explicit songs on my Chromecast Audio

[Punchy06]

hello,

I've had this issue for some time.  I want to play all music in my YouTube Music Super Mix. There are explicit "E" songs in that playlist.  They are skipped when I play it over my ChromeCast Audio.  Steps I've taken

1. Removed all filters in Digital Wellbeing (This device isn't even in there)

2. Removed any Explicit tags on all my Nest/CC devices.

3. Removed the block explicit songs within YouTube Music.

4. Factory reset this device multiple times.

I'm now at a loss, since I have 2 CC Audio devices and one works just fine, and the other one can't seem to get around this bug.  I've seen a response on Reddit stating that if you Directly ask your speaker to play a song it will play and then you can cast explicit lyrics again.  This doesn't quite work with a CC Audio since you never ask it to do anything directly.  I am requesting songs through one of my Nest mini, Cast from the YouTube App on my phone, or through my browser.  

If I try an play a song from the YouTube App the CC Audio will say something went wrong and then move on to a song that is clean.  From my browser, it just sends it straight to the next song without any error message.

Same here, couldn't find a solution. It's extremely annoying!

So I have mine working now.  And the solution has held up. 

I factory reset my device.  Then added it back into my home, but gave it a different name.  This has cleared it up for me for the last couple of weeks.  It's really annoying to change the name, since I've had the same name over the past few years. But it works now.

Thank you so much!!! It worked!! I've had this issue for more than a year I think, and couldn't find a solution...

That makes me happy!!  glad that it worked.  I was dealing with it for a long time. I just don't use this device all the time so I would forget to work on it.
