We've used Dashkiosk for some time now to show a dashboard on four of our Chromecasts. These dashboards are shown on TV screens which we turn off daily (which also turns off the Chromecasts), so we rely on Dashkiosk's Chromecast management to have the Chromecast show Dashkiosk after restarting.
Since last Thursday (2019-09-12), none of our Chromecasts seem to be detected by Dashkiosk anymore. Dashkiosk shows this error in the logs, where it seems to have detected one of our Chromecasts, but can't connect to it:
We have also noticed that while the Chromecasts do show up in avahi-browse _googlecast._tcp, the IP addresses don't get resolved when using getent hosts Chromecast-c015fc8028f7bef09e0af4c95193fa70.local.
We are able to ping the Chromecasts from the host running Dashkiosk, and can also use Google Chrome from that host to cast the dashboard manually to the affected Chromecasts.
The host running Dashkiosk runs Ubuntu 18.04 (Desktop version).
We have tried the following:
Restarting Dashkiosk
Factory resetting Chromecasts
Rebooting the host running Dashkiosk
Running system updates
Update Dashkiosk itself (we were on version 2.7.3, and also tested with 2.7.7)
Do you have any idea what might have caused this issue?

It seems there is a change in the protocol used by the Chromecasts. You may just try to comment the condition in /opt/dashkiosk-2.7.7/dist/node_modules/nodecastor/lib/channel.js, line 347 and check if it helps.
Also, you could check if another client is working correctly. For example go-chromecast with the go-chromecast status command.
