I have a Wiim device called Kitchen Speaker. It has multiple casting targets:
- Google Cast (Kitchen Speaker)
- Spotify Connect (Kitchen Speaker)
If I cast to the Google Cast speaker from Spotify, I can see that the speaker is playing music in the Google Home app and I can ask the assistant to stop playing music via voice.
If I cast to the Spotify Connect speaker from Spotify, the Kitchen Speaker in the Google Home app shows that no music is playing. When I try to control the Kitchen Speaker via Google Assistant, I'm told 'that device isn't playing any music'.
Ideally if the speaker is playing music, the state of that should be visible on the Google Cast speaker so I can control it via voice. This is what the Bose speakers do.
