‘Unable to connect to “Homepods’. Issue with Apple TV HD
Hi, I have an Apple TV HD (A1625) and have previously used it with 2 paired Homepod Minis without issue. However, recently (around mid-April 2023), when I try and select the Homepod Mini’s as the temporary audio output, I am presented with the message ‘Unable to connect to “Homepods”.
My TVOS is up to date (16.4.1) as are my Homepods (16.4.1), they are all connected to the same Wi-fi network and the Homepods are visible as an output option on the Apple TV.
I have unpaired, reset and rebooted the Homepods and I have restarted the Apple TV - all without success.
Is anyone able to assist with this? Solutions shown in the Apple Support forums have not worked for me yet. It seems like the Apple TV HD no longer supports Homepods Minis?
