The cause of the casting issues on Xiaomi Redmi Note 9, Mi 11, and other devices is hard to ascertain at the moment given that there isn’t any MIUI or Android version to which the issue is limited to.

Take the Redmi Note 8 Pro, for example, which is currently running Android 10-based MIUI 12, yet is facing the same issues as the Mi 11 which has been updated to Android 11-based MIUI 12.5.

Thankfully, a couple of Mi Community mods have acknowledged the issues saying that they’ve been confirmed as a bug.
