Ok, upgraded to v0.3.7 on Mac OSX (10.11.6 El Capitan), installed with brew, and still seeing this problem. pychromecast is version 0.7.7, and QT is 5.8.0, if that matters. Here's more detailed analysis of the issue.. it's a bit long, but the issue isn't exactly straight forward to explain:

When you start the mkchromecast app and search for chromecast devices it seems sometimes they are found in different order.. it's quite random, but let's say that out of 15 times you start the mkchromecast app and search for devices, twice the devices are found on different order.. so most of the times they are found on same order, but not always. Ok, let's continue. As an example here you have the found devices:

First device: Chromecast Audio.
Second device: Chromecast Ultra.
After searching If I click the first device to select it, both devices get selected. This happens every time. Clearly a bug.
After searching If I click the second device to select it, only the second device gets selected (as expected). Selecting the second device seems to work OK every time, just like it should.
When both devices are selected (due to the bug above), you can actually remove the selection from the first device by clicking on it, and this works as it should, leaving only the second device selected/working.
When both devices are selected (due to the bug above), If you try to remove the selection from the second device by clicking on the second device, nothing happens, and both stay selected. Clearly a bug aswell.

The end result: You can properly use only the device which is found as second on the list. If the device you wanted to use wasn't actually found as second device one has to restart and rescan many many times to make it happen.. Does that help finding and fixing the bug?

Cannot connect to a single Chromecast Audio #50
