Chromecast (2nd gen) and Audio cannot Cast in 'Untrusted' outage [U] (9to5google.com)

I was wondering why my Chromecast was suddenly untrusted. An update seems to have knocked off older Chromecast devices globally. People are factory-resetting them before they know what to do, making the potential fixes even harder.

We have a Chromecast 2nd generation which has indeed the known problem. However when I use Music Assistant from Home Assistant I can cast from my own music collection (flac files).

I haven’t tried yet to cast from Spotify using Music Assistant.

I own an iPhone and casting a Youtube video indeed doesn’t work. This results in receiving an untrusted device message.

Questions now coming up are

  • why are some apps still able to cast to a 2nd generation Chromecast?
  • are there more apps still working?
