When playing youtube, pushing the 'cast' button brings up the right list of receivers. On picking one, a brief "connecting" type messages comes up, then chromium crashes. These messages come up on the command line: [1003/195005.921451:ERROR:elf_dynamic_array_reader.h(64)] tag not found [1003/195005.921550:ERROR:elf_dynamic_array_reader.h(64)] tag not found [1003/195005.921602:ERROR:elf_dynamic_array_reader.h(64)] tag not found [1003/195005.921628:ERROR:elf_dynamic_array_reader.h(64)] tag not found [31413:31426:1003/195005.949353:ERROR:broker_posix.cc(40)] Recvmsg error: Connection reset by peer (104) [1]+ Segmentation fault chromium I have never tried casting before, and don't need it, so just for information. The device I'm casting to is a new Google Home Hub. I'm on kernel linux-5.15.69-gentoo
Can you try with --disable-feature=GlobalMediaControlsCastStartStop?
--disable-features=GlobalMediaControlsCastStartStop ofc
When started from the command line with --disable-features=GlobalMediaControlsCastStartStop Casting is now working. Can I disable this in settings?
You can put it in CHROMIUM_FLAGS in /etc/chromium/default for the moment until we figure out why it crashes.

After upgrading chromium, I removed the option from /etc/chromium/default & restarted chromium. Casting is now working as expected.
