you need to route the audio from the TV to the Stereo, via RCA or the headphone jack to RCA via an adaptor.
the chromecast gives audio over HDMI to the TV, using an audio out on the TV pass that to an input on the surround.
Chrome Cast>TV>Surround Sound

are you kidding me :D?
 
Plug the stick into one of the HDMI inputs on the receiver. Connect the receiver HDMI out to the TV.
If your TV has optical audio out you can plug the stick into the TV and the optical out to the receiver.
If the TV has HDMI ARC then you can use an HDMI cable from the receiver HMDI out to the TV to get sound from the TV to the receiver. You need ARC in both the TV and receiver and have to turn it on.
