Hello everyone. I’m having trouble playing media on my Google speakers and Nest Hub. Neither TTS nor media playback (radio or files) works. Every attempt results in the following error:
“TypeError: BaseMediaPlayer.play_media() got an unexpected keyword argument ‘media_content_id’”
As already described in the issue on GitHub.
Does anyone have an idea what might be causing this? No changes have been made to the system.
I am getting this exact issue but with tts to cast devices!!! this has only starting happening today!
I can’t help, but this started for me today too.
Just wanted you to know you’re not alone!
It started in 2025.5.3 and I thought it will be fixed in 2025.6.0 but still also happening to me
Same here. When it first started, it seemed that it could be resolved by restarting Home Assistant. But now I get the error instantly. I can cast and tts to other devices, just not to Google speaker.
Same issue started maybe 2 weeks back. Removing and re-adding the integration didn’t help.
It seems to work fine until I send audio to a non-Google device.
Once I do that (eg tts to my dashboard tablet) I can’t cast a local file, start a radio stream or tts to any Google device.
Restarting HA fixes it but it breaks again as soon as I cast somewhere else, like the Home devices get jealous.
Also experiencing this issue.
Interesting that this bug is not even notice for HA team, Is possible that is not happening to all google cast users?
Not a fix, but a workaround: I’ve converted my scripts to run through Music Assistant, which casts to Google speakers fine.
Yes I am having this problem also. Just started the other day after I cast to a non-google device for the first time. Very odd.

Do you know if version 2025.7 fix the issue ?
Got the latest update and everything is working now!
After Update I still got same error:
TypeError: BaseMediaPlayer.play_media() got an unexpected keyword argument 'media_content_id'
