HELP: Chromecast selectively casts sound depending on app or specific media?!

by ddogreddit

Hello! I bought an EUG Android TV, used. Everything seems to be fine except that some streaming apps audio works via Chromecast (gen 1) to my Bluetooth audio and some does not.

YouTube, Prime, and some of Netflix work as I’d expect.

However HBO doesn’t transmit audio, and many shows on Netflix don’t as well. For example, “Moon” works fine but “Bad Boys” does not, on Netflix.

I do not know how to troubleshoot this, google searches aren’t helping, and I’m rather frustrated.

Please help.

So, I'm confused, are you using the built-in Chromecast functionality in Android TV or a separate gen 1 Chromecast dongle?
