My Question or Issue

Since there is no specific place for feedback/issues about Assistant/Google Casting integration I will put it here:

Since a while now (longer than a month) Google Casting to any Smart Speakers in my house is constantly being interrupted for no reason without any audible warning. It happens both on single Speakers and also in Speaker Groups.

Specifically the following things are occurring often:

• The sound just stops midway through a song, Spotify and Google Home app still show the music is active but there is no longer any sound coming from the Speakers.
• Playback just stops at the end of a song and it refuses to skip to the next song. Spotify and Google Home app show the song is active but goes beyond the maximum duration (screenshot attached).
• The music playback stops entirely. Spotify app no longers shows Speakers as active, but Google Home still shows them as Casting...

Resetting Speakers, App, WiFi, Rebooting does not make a difference at all. What is going on? I constantly have to restart playback this way which is super annoying!
