Possible workaround — use microHDMI - HDMI cable to connect device with 
monitor directly, it will allow you to share video from Tango to monitor, but 
major disadvantage of it, you will be limited by cable length.

Do you still see the issue if you update to Lollipop?

Project Tango development tablets don't currently support the screen sharing 
feature via Chromecast. It's possible that they will support it in the future 
by upgrading the device to Lollipop, but there's no set date for addressing 
this currently. In the meantime, you can use a micro-HDMI cable to share to the 
TV, but we understand that's a lot less convenient and appreciate your patience 
on the matter.

This might work...
One of our team suggested this app:

This is free version, annoying ads & limited session length (but fine for 
testing functionality) with in-app purchase for full release.
It connects to the chromecast dongle immediately with fantastic quality 
picture, looks like 1080p (but with 2-3 secs lag).  Streams to VLC happily but 
lower quality picture.  I could get the lag down to about 1.5 sec with greater 
picture quality compromise.
