Specifying a Default speaker for Audio - Google Home

Hi,
I have Google Home App on my Android phone and Google Cast speakers (from LG).
When I am at home (connected to my Wifi) each time I want to play a podcast from Google Podcast (or any other audio app doesn't matter), the sound is starting to go out of my Android phone speakers!! That's annoying because 99% of the time I want to have the po,dcast to be played from my Google Cast speaker group 'All house'.
-> So each time I have to then manually select my speaker group All house. What a lost of time!
How can I specify 'All house' as my default speaker?
By searching on the internet I have found this screenshot, looks exactly what I want, but I could not find such screen on my Google Home. What about you?

How do you use your Google Cast speakers without this ? or do you do this manually each time?

Music Listening: Upmix 5.1 or not?

I have a True 5.1 Headset and i am also a heavy music listener.
I am currently using Zune Software (as a part of Windows Phone) and Foobar 2000 to listen to music.
As you all know, all music now days are recorded in 2 Channel L,R , but Foobar 2000 has a channel mixer Plug-in, in order to play the song in all channel (Up to 6 channel, which is perfect for me since i have the 5.1 system)

So i want to ask if it is worth it to upmix the song to play on all 6 channel, or just leave it and play with only L and R (Talking about the quality of the sound output here, all of my song are lossy 320kbps)? If so, what is the best setting for everything ? I am just a noob in this one.

Sense 6 Bug? - Google Play Music

I have a T-Mobile HTC One and received the Sense 6 update last week. It's been running very well but I noticed a possible minor bug.
When I'm playing a song using Google Play Music and look at my lockscreen, under the title on the music widget always says "Unknown Artist" even though all my songs have a proper artist tag assigned.
Anyone else experiencing this issue?
Working fine here, tested playing with Google music

Bluetooth streaming to car not connecting - correctly

Bit of a bizarre one, I think. Got a new Peugeot 3008, when I first connected my P20 Pro to the car, it worked for both telephone audio and streaming. The next time, when I start the car, it makes a telephone bluetooth connection, but the streaming option does not connect
When I select the streaming option to connect from the car menu, I get the following error

On the phone, the media audio slider stays off
However, if I go on the phone, and slider the media audio, it instantly connects to the car
Any ideas

[REQUEST] Allow HDHomeRun television app to continue playback with screen off

Hoping that someone who watches OTA TV on their cellphone using HDHomeRun hardware, can hack the app to allow it to continue playback with screen off.
That way, we can LISTEN to the TV while the phone is in our pocket.
I personally want it so I can listen to sports games while doing chores around the house and mowing the yard.

Question Audio/Media Output selector ColorOS13

Hi,
I can't find a selector for the audio output device any more.
If I have some bluetooth devices connected, I'm not able to select where to play the audio stream.
Can you help me?
Best,
Frank

When playing music, there is an icon in the top right of the notification pannel widget that opens output selector
Yes, but what about notification sounds? How to route them?
For Spotify that works. But für Amazon Prime video or Netflix I can't find a selector
I have this problem too.
When i connect phone to my 7 years old bluetooth car audio , notification sounds go through bluetooth device only. Unable to select phone speaker.
Google Maps indications only via bluetooth even if i force them to be played by internal speaker.
I think this Is a bug. A very annoying bug
