Chromecast Speakers Stoppled playing local mp3 files after getting 2.2.9.142

Hi!

I've just noticed that the local mp3 files that I use for reminders or announcements through google speakers stopped working after receiving the 2.2.9.142 update. This always worked consistently before the update. Playing the mp3 files through the device's "Play Track" button also does not work anymore. Anyone else experiencing the same issue? Please advise.



Hub IP address definitely still correct?

Yes, still the same static IP.

Do you have secure UI enabled?

are you referring to this?

i haven't changed any settings on my hub recently.
anything you want me to try?

Yes, that login security.
Could you try temporarily disabling it to check if that works? I'm almost certain it will. If that's what I'm thinking, the next 2.2.9 update will include a fix.

you're right, disabling the "hub login security" fixed the issue.
i guess i'll just be waiting for the next 2.2.9 update. thanks!

2.2.9.145 out, that should have it fixed.

I just got the 2.2.9.145 and my local mp3 files are playing again on my google speakers without disabling "hub login security". Thanks for the quick fix. You guys are awesome! :smiley:
