AirPlay doesn't work from Podcasts...

I'm on MacOS 10.15.3 and Podcasts Version 1.0.0 (1425.5).


With Music Version 1.0.3.1 I can use AirPlay to all my devices (and more than one at the time), but with Podcasts I can only use my Apple TV 4 or my Computer (one or the other, not both).


My other two devices: A Denon CEOL Piccolo and a Yamaha smart speaker (called Kitchen) shows up in the Airplay list also from the Podcasts app, but if I choose (either of) them the checkbox tics, but the sound continues from the computer:



Both of them (as mentioned) works flawlessly as expected from the Music app.

Hey there Mitthrawnuruodo,


Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. I understand you’re having issues playing your podcast over AirPlay to certain devices. I’ll be happy to help with this.


To verify, does this happen in a new user account as well? Test to see:


How to test an issue in another user account on your Mac


If the issue continues there, try power cycling all devices and see if this has any impact on the issue.


I understand AirPlay works without any issues in Music but just to be on the safe side, review this article when attempting to AirPlay a podcast and see if it helps:


If AirPlay or screen mirroring isn’t working on your device


Regards.

Hi Mitthrawnuruodo


Thanks for reaching back out and providing that detail. To verify, are you attempting to AirPlay to multiple speakers at once, or just one? If the issue continued in a new user account, you may want to reinstall macOS using the steps from the following link. While this should retain your user settings and files, it’s always a good idea to make a backup before doing this:

Reinstall macOS


If you continue to have issues after that, reach out to Apple Support at the following link to look further into this with you:


Contact Apple for support and service


Take care.

Hello all,

the same probkem here. Running 10.15.4 and it is impossible to play sound through airplay from Podcasts App. I mean, I can select the airplay device (Apple TV) but he sound is still coming from the MacBook Air's speakers. Meanwhile the Music app works flawlessly with airplay. Even more, mirroring screen to TV via Apple TV also outputs the Podcasts sound to speakers attached to the Apple TV!!! Unbelievable, I hoped that the last system update will fix this.
