The Google Home app also shows a volume control for this device. However, if you change it, a message appears stating "To adjust volume, update Chromecast settings in the Remote & Accessories settings menu". I have both devices connected to Marantz receivers, and I set the control on the receiver through its remote, not on the Chromecasts.
Clearly, Google Home has a way of querying that setting, since they are showing this message. I don't know if there is a way to do the same through their API.
I believe the UI behavior in Google Home is not desirable to duplicate here. Simply greying out the volume control makes more sense to me.
