I am seeing the same issue trying to enable sendspin across different chromecast devices that all fail:

I left it enabled over night and this morning it works.

Edit, it stopped working after a few minutes.

Same thing here with Chromecast enabled players. When I enable Sendspin on a player, the music seems to play but no sound comes out. As soon as I deactivate Sendspin, the sound comes out.
Can't access the logs now though, since I'm supposed to do something useful q-:
One day it will work out of the box and it'll be glorious. In the meantime, I'll keep on just being very happy with MA (-:

Same here with two chromecast devices :(

What happens if you start playing to the sendspin web player and then sync the cast players to that?

I had the same issue with a Samsung soundbar. I was able to get it working by disabeling my pi-hole, power cycle the soundbar and opening the smartthings app to connect to the soundbar. From what I understand is that the cast app has a new ID that needs to be fetched from the google servers. If your speakers can't connect to the google servers, they won't be able to get the new ID.

got it working today, the only issue I have are constant skips on the sound.

I have the same problem with two speakers.
The wierd thing is, that one of them once worked. This is a Google Nest Mini. I think from the First Generation.

The second speaker is a Raumfeld One M, which I added recently.

I think the problem startet with one of the last Updates. .1 or .2 Bit cannot revert to check.
