Hello,
first of all, many thanks for this awesome player, i enjoy it every day. But a couple of days ago i wanted to use Chromecast again but now i'm having issues while 2 weeks ago everything was working fine. I can cast but the the screen stays black without albumart, Poweramp pauses the music, when i press play nothing happens, swiping to the next song works, volume increase works but if i press play the volume drops again. I have tried this with my current Chromecast 3 Ultra, Chromecast 1 and the built in Chromecast from my Onkyo AV Receiver. Chromecast works perfect with Netflix, Youtube etc... Only Poweramp fails. I also used mp3's without albumart.

I have a Samsung Note 9 with Android 10. Then i tried the phone from my wife, a Samsung Galaxy S9+ but with exactly the same results, casting from her phone was also working 2 weeks ago. I've also tried reinstalling the app, tried all the settings, used default settings, clean installs without previous settings etc. I also tried previous Poweramp versions, nothing worked. Then i took my older phone, a Samsung Note 3 with Android 5 and now i can cast to Chromecast again and everything works like it should.
So is there a issue with Android here, the kernel version maybe? I can't remember when i've last updated the phone and if it did update in these last 2 weeks, it's possible but i cant remember sadly. The only thing that i could try is resetting my phone but that's really a big hassle and since Poweramp casting also did not work on my wife's phone i don't think this will be the solution.
