#Music doesn't automatically start on a Google home speaker

I have an odd issue using Google home speakers where I have 4 in a group. If I'm for example play a radio stream on the speakers and start to play music in the group through music assistant, the music will start playing in 3 of the 4 speakers. The radio stream stops in the 4th speaker but the music never starts. I have to power off the group in music assistant and then power in again and press play, and only then does the 4th speaker play the music. Anyone experience this/know of a solution?

I see home assistant that it says the 4th speaker is playing but there's no audio and volume is not mute

Thanks

How did you create the group? Are you saying the music starts playing on all four but then one stops? Is it always the same player that stops? Have you been though the troubleshooting page of the docs?

It's a group created in Google home, the music plays on 3 of the 4 speakers fine but I have to power off and in the group for the fourth speaker. It's always the same speaker that won't start playing initially.

Are there any issues with that speaker if you play to it individually. How is that speaker different to the others?

No its fine other than that. They are all nest audio speakers. I added another nest audio to the group that i had lying around and same issue with that speaker. I created a new group on google home but same issue with the new group too.
