I don't believe that it's possible to stream downloaded media from the Chromebook while the lid is closed as that suspends the network stack.

Assigning to myself to repro & confirm.

Here's the current status using a Chromebook Pixel (55.0.2883.35 beta) and a video file in my @google.com account.

When I play the file on drive.google.com, the Files app, or in a browser tab, none of them offer native Cast support: it can only be done through tab or desktop mirroring.  These are not expected to work when while Chromebook is suspended.

In the meantime an app like Videostream can be used for casting local media.

(Actually, drag and drop from Files to a browser tab takes a long time to start.  That seems like a bug.)
