Hi!
I have automations that play some text using TTS on my Google mini when motion is detected on my cameras. Always worked perfectly but stopped today (after updating to 2024.10 but can’t say if it’s really the problem).
So what happens is, when the home mini becomes idle, the states changes to :
When it’s in that state, when I tried to use TTS to tell something, the only thing I hear is the chime. No text is spoken.
When it happens, this is what happens:
it became “unavailable”.
But after that, it’s now awaken so the next occurence works well.
In the past, even when the state changed to turn off, it was working well! I don’t get why I get the unavailable now.
Any idea?
thank you

### The problem
Before this update, (and after rolling back to the previous ver… sion) it was possible to send TTS messages to chromecast devices. Now quickplay fails, so what happens is that home assistant produces this error message, Failed to perform the action media_player/play_media. CastMediaPlayerEntity._quick_play Failed: Failed to execute quick play. This seems to happen to Google Cast devices with ANY TTS addon, (I've also tried Piper). If you try to play the media again (after HA has turned the cast device to Idle) then it succeeds.
### What version of Home Assistant Core has the issue?
core-2024.10.0
### What was the last working version of Home Assistant Core?
core_2024.9.3
### What type of installation are you running?
Home Assistant OS

Probably related. There seems to be an issue with Google media players and 2024.10.0.

Looks like a fix was just merged. It probably made it for the .1 release so you should be good to go in a day or two.
