It looks like the casting changes in Plexamp 3.4.6 on Android broke casting for me, for groups and individual speakers alike. I’m on Android 12 B1 on a Pixel 5, and I’m pretty sure the beta OS didn’t break this - but I can’t swear on that timing 🙂 I have various Nest and non-Google devices, neither of them works with Plexamp, but they all work with Spotify or YTMusic. My logs are like this, a bit redacted ```auto May 24, 2021 08:47:03.302 [Javascript] WARNING - DEVICE: Player connection https://...d153fb3c8.plex.direct:10157 didn't work for Chrome: HTTP status -28 May 24, 2021 08:47:03.302 [Javascript] WARNING - DEVICE: Connection testing failed for Chrome May 24, 2021 08:47:03.495 [Javascript] INFO - Cast: Session started.

As a comparison data point, I’m running Android 11 patch level RQ2A.210505.002 on a Pixel 4a, PlexAmp 3.4.6. I was just able to cast to a Google Nest speaker. I’ll do some additional testing to see if I can create a failure scenario. ---

Thanks, that was a good data point! I uninstalled, installed 3.4.5, that worked, and the updated to 3.4.6 again, and now cast works again. Must have been something weird cached… ---
