Before 2021.12 I was able to send metadata when casting internet radio. This was useful as the stream would otherwise have no title or thumbnail.
When the the Default Media Receiver changed to HA Media Player, when casting, this stopped working, as in, it just shows 'Home Assistant Media Player'. I also noticed that the cast docs (linked) mention that the 'extra' field should be below 'metadata'. Before I did it without 'metadata' (as documented here: https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/media_player/). In either case it fails to show a title or thumbnail, but does play the stream.
Also after updating to 2021.12 the pause button on the cast entity gives the following error in the log: 2021-12-20 22:48:31 WARNING (SyncWorker_7) [pychromecast.controllers] PAUSE command requested but no session is active.
What version of Home Assistant Core has the issue?
core-2021.12.3
What was the last working version of Home Assistant Core?
Hey there @emontnemery, mind taking a look at this issue as it has been labeled with an integration (cast) you are listed as a code owner for? Thanks! (message by CodeOwnersMention)
