FIX

Do a hard reset cycle on the player (not just sleep), then reopen Chromecast before changing any settings.
Update system software first, then Chromecast, then reboot so both layers load fresh.
Sign out everywhere you can for Chromecast, wait a minute, sign in only on this device, then test.
If using VPN/proxy anywhere on the network, turn it off and retry Chromecast immediately.
