If multiple requests come in quickly this crash occurs.

This happens a lot at my house from scenarios like this: ST tells cast-web-api to TTS announce that the dryer or washing machine is finished but at the same time somebody opens the door which plays a tone. Another scenario is that the washing machine and dryer finish at nearly the same time (this almost always happens because they run about the same amount of time).

Alright I see what use case causes this, thanks for elaborating!

Have you maybe tried enabling the assistant integration? This seems like a way better approach to notifications. Go to /assistant/setup and follow the guide. After that you can set your cast-web-api device in ST to your speak() device, not your speaker group.

Did this issue not occur in v1.0.0? Fixing the issue itself will be pretty hard since it's not inside my application but in a library I use.

I could reproduce this behavior. Still wondering if this occurred in v.1.0.0 already.

Fixing it won't be easy, so I scheduled it for next release. For the time being use Google Assistant.
