I'm getting the same behavior.
I don't have my jellyfin and android app version on hand, but I just recently installed and setup jellyfin for the first time and getting the android app to cast to my chromecast over the last few days, but i'm inconsistently able to detect the chromecast as a device i can cast to in the android app but i can detect and cast to the chromecast with youtube and google home just fine.
it seems to me like the issue is related to the multicast system Sender -> Receiver communication to establish a session according to the chromecast dev guide diagram https://developers.google.com/cast/docs/overview
