I can confirm I've got the same issue. Commenting out the row in config doesn't seem to help.
Also huge thanks for the effort non the less.

codydubat · 2024-09-18T13:27:30Z

If you want a quick fix for your local environment open /etc/raspotify/conf and just set LIBRESPORT_AUTOPLAY to on or off:
LIBRESPOT_AUTOPLAY=on

TupaNegreiros · 2024-09-18T13:44:16Z

LIBRESPORT_AUTOPLAY

I confirm adding LIBRESPOT_AUTOPLAY="on" at the end of /etc/raspotify/conf fixed.

Thanks a lot @codydubat !

codydubat · 2024-09-18T14:01:38Z

@bvdf0251 For me commenting it also works, you just need to run sudo systemctl restart raspotify in order for the config to be re-applied

With this addition it's showing me an error 'failed to register ipv6 receiver' and I can't connect from my phone.

XuluWarrior · 2024-09-18T20:43:43Z

I'm assuming that this is an issue with 0.44.0 after #672
As everything was working for me before upgrading from 0.43.x (can't remember the exact version)

If so, can we include this a requirement in the release notes.

bvdf0251 · 2024-09-18T20:59:01Z

With this addition it's showing me an error 'failed to register ipv6 receiver' and I can't connect from my phone.

Fixed by enabling ipv6

Still not working though. It's starting but unable to connect from phone.

Downgrade to latest 0.43 still working.
