Unable to cast local media to Chromecast

Plex Media Server

Server Version#: 1.24.3.5033 on Ubuntu 20.04.3
Player Version#: Plex Web 4.63.0
Cast firmware: 1.52.253741

I’m unable to cast any of my local media from Plex Web to my Chromecast for an unknown reason.

The Plex standby-like screen appears without issue when selecting the device to cast to. However, when I attempt to play something everything hangs for a bit and after a short amount of time “Sorry. Something went wrong.” appears on the TV connected to the Chromecast.

I can’t seem to find anything of note in the logs (see attached). More confusing is that I am able to cast media shared with me by a family member without any issue. I am also able to cast local media located on the same logical server using VLC without issue.

Using the Plex app on the Chromecast device is working for me instead of casting from the server. Nevermind!
