The expected result should be the same in (1) and (2) above: the "Cast..." function should discover and show the Chromecast.

There is a bug in the Chromium browser that somehow is corrected in the corresponding version of the Chrome browser.
If this is not the intention of Google then we have bug that must be corrected in Chromium browser.
