I’m using mopidy on a RasPi within a kids musicplayer (phoniebox). It was working great until a couple of days ago spotify is no longer playing. Local music does.  
sudo journalctl -u mopidy -f

shows

ERROR [MainThread] mopidy.audio.gst GStreamer error: Resource not found.

when I try to play from spotify. I can see my playlists an browse spotify. But it doesn’t play any music.

Something must have changed. Any Ideas?

Thank you kingosticks!  
Worked directly.  
Just downloaded the  
[gst-plugin-spotify\_0.15.0.alpha.1-2\_armhf.deb](https://github.com/kingosticks/gst-plugins-rs-build/releases/download/gst-plugin-spotify_0.15.0-alpha.1-2/gst-plugin-spotify_0.15.0.alpha.1-2_armhf.deb)

installed on the raspi using:  
sudo dpkg -i gst-plugin-spotify\_0.15.0.alpha.1-2\_armhf.deb

reboot and everything works again!  
Thank you!
