Chromecast errors everyday during the night

Configuration
1

Hi,
I get these errors in my log every night about my Chromecast. Is this something wrong with my config, or is it nothing to worry about? Is it fixable, or not necessary to fix?

Cheers

The following errors have been logged this session:

I’m starting to get this too.

pychromecast.socket_client: Heartbeat timeout, resetting connection

Any ideas?

I’m getting the same issue randomly (usually within 1-2 days from a reboot)… Running the latest version of HASS with a rPi 2. I get the following error code:

Really annoying since I have to reboot my rPi in order to get HASS up and running again… Is there a fix for the issue?

Keeping this thread alive as I am seeing the same issues as well.

Me too!
I don’t even have chromecast included.

Any solution?
Sonos related?

I haven’t raised an issue on this in github, and I’m going to wait until .34 to see if some of the changes/updates in async have any effect.

I’m really gun shy about putting in an issue because the last two turned out to be something stupid in my configs. :blush:

Still getting these errors in 0.34.2. I think if I see another new user on the thread with this problem, I’ll put in an issue.

I’m getting these, but I just assumed it was because the Chromecast is turned off on a night so it can’t be reached (we switch the TV off at the wall, so no power gets to it at all).

It seems to work fine, so I just ignored the errors. It’d be nice to sort if it’s an easy fix though, to stop my logs getting filled up.

I’m pretty sure mine is plugged into AC but I better check that first before I post any issue. Thanks.

I’ve just seen this too, looks like it might be related:

I’m seeing this as well after the upgrade to 34. I skipped 33 and haven’t seen it under 32.

So to me it looks like it started after 32

Hi

I am still getting this. Any resolution on this?

Still getting these in 38.1- causing issues with my lights dimming during playback/full brightness when paused/stopped as well.
