Ever since the decision from B&O and spotify, I have not been able to use my Beoplay A9 Mk1 speaker.
In an attempt to start using it again, I ordered a chromecast audio in order to listen to stream music to the speaker through the in line sockets using the chromecast as a intermediate link.
I have, however, discovered an issue after setting up the chromecast; no sound is played.
First time I ran the setup for the chromecast, I heard the test sound in the speaker, played from the chromecast.
When I completed the setup, I tried streaming music through spotify, but no music was coming out of the speaker.
I tried streaming some sounds/music from other medias, but same result; no music.
I tested that it was possible for me to stream music on my computer to the beoplay directly through smartshare, and the speaker plays the music perfectly fine in this case.
I decided to format the chromecast and try setting it up once again.
This time there was no sound played during the test setup.
I decided to complete the setup anyway and when I streamed music through spotify, no music was coming out of the speaker (as expected, but I hoped for a miracle)
I am rather confused how this can be.
One question I have though; how does the speaker know whether it should make use of in line audio or wifi audio?
I hope that you can help
