Can't get YouTube Music to play on either Acrylic or Sonos

[EvanWasHere-zz]

**Edit: Title should be Arylic, not Acrylic

I installed ytube_music_player and linked it to my YouTube Music account. I was successfully able to play YouTube Music from my Arylic and Sonos amps. I decided I didn't need Music Assistant anymore and uninstalled that. But then YouTube Music stopped playing on mini player. I spent hours trying to get it to work again before wiping Home Assistant and trying on a fresh install.

• Installed HA
• Installed mini player
• Installed Ytube_music_player
• Connected to Google account

Won't play YouTube Music to either of those 2 amps. All that shows is time code counting up on left side while right side stays at 0:00. I tried playlists and individual songs. I tried a different account on Google. I tried signing in/out of google.

If I switch output to Google clock, then Ytube_music_player works right away. If I switch back to Sonos or Arylic, it stops. I can also play all other sources on the Sonos and Arylic amps.

I also tried reinstalling Music Assistant and couldn't recreate my original success.

Version
All latest versions, including Ytube_music_player 20240517.01, mini music player v1.16.9,

Hi @EvanWasHere-zz .. this component is using the Build-in method of Homeassistant to send an URL to a media_player.
if the media_player can stream from an URL it will play the song.

My google devices (nest-mini, chromecast etc) can do that .. as far as I'm aware Sonos can NOT do that. There is a workaround in place
please read here https://github.com/KoljaWindeler/ytube_music_player?tab=readme-ov-file#proxy and try methode 2
