I recently signed up with Deezer and got rid of spotify.  I partly choose the app bc it works with android auto and my jbl Google smart speaker where I do 95% of my listening.  Works fine with AA, but I get a 404 error every time I try to link with my speaker in Google home.  Spent 20+ minutes with Google support only to be told to make a feedback report.  Spent 5 minutes with Deezer support and they told me it's a known issue for some with Google and they are working to resolve it. Unsure how long this has been an issue. 

So I how will find out if it's been fixed and how widespread is this?  I haven't seen anything come up in search that is recent.

Hi ​@Dlw9798 

You need to pair your Deezer account with your Google speaker first, then you will be able to play music from the app to your speaker and also use the voice commands as well.

Here you have all the relevant info to link your speaker

Make sure your Google Nest Audio device is set up and that you've downloaded the Google Home app from the Play Store.

  1. Within the Google Home GoogleHome.png app, go to the Home tab
  2. Select the add + icon located in the middle of the screen
  3. Within the Manage Services section, select Music and audio
  4. Select the link Link.svg icon under Deezer

I did exactly this.  I'm trying to pair them but when I get to the final step I get a 404 error. 

Deezer chat support said they know about the issue,  but here I am 3 weeks later and it still doesn't work.

@Dlw9798 these things can take time, especially when it involves another company’s products. Fixing something confined to deezer’s control vs resolving an issue dependent on both Google and deezer and their smooth interaction.

Same issue here

Same issue here. I’m trying Deezer to replace Spotify, this experience may be VERY short. Any chance this issue will be fixed ?
