When you first set it up, using the Google Home app, did you hear the test tone?
You just may have a bad one. Exchange it. Could the cable be bad? Are you trying to stream hi rez about 96K?By the way, just bought a Roku Ultra for TV and the sound quality and picture quality are much better than the Chrome Cast it replaced.

Hold the button on the unit in until the light turns white.
TBH, when I posted my first query, I didn't know I needed Google Home. Since then, I've installed Google Home. But there's no test tone. The dongle displays a green light, which may indicate that it's paired with the cell phone.
I mentioned Bluetooth only to verify that I can play Idagio through Bluetooth, i.e. I can get a signal to waft across the room, and the system can play it. In other news, I pressed a "play" button in Google Home, and I got some very loud hip-hop "music." So I think the Chromecast Audio dongle is working. But, it appears to me that I can use Chromecast Audio only with the specific streaming services that are listed under Google Home.
