I might be wrong, but the nightmare issue seems specific to the Chromecast 
Music devices and not the TV/Display devices? Maybe that's why I haven't run 
into it?

We use Meraki gear.  I have a love/hate relationship with it...

 

https://chromeunboxed.com/chromecast-notifications-suddenly-appear-on-android-devices-explained/
 is the issue (well, less issue and more new feature)

 

It does have benefits- we were all just having a proper Xmas singalong via my 
phone casting to the nearest chromecast, and then the guy I work opposite had 
an important phone call come in, so he hit pause on his phone

What gear are you using, Tom? Mostly so we can all avoid it? ;)

 

At Indy Hall we have several Chromecast TVs and HDMI devices (not the 
audio-broadcast ones) and haven't seen any kind of notification issues. 

 

Our music system is a WHOLE other story - but I finally feel like we got that 
situated this year, too!

Just as a follow up to this, we've just finished adding Chromecast audios in to 
our whole hub, so we can have space-wide synched tunes, and it's been a 
nightmare due to this new Google functionality.  Everyone who has an android 
phone, from members to visitors, all get a notification on their phone about 
what's playing, and are able to pause it.  Community wise it's not too bad, as 
people leave it alone, but visitors have got alarmed/think they've been 
hacked/close the app and stop the music.  Looks like we're going to have to 
rethink it, and have an isolated network of some kind for the chromecasts.
