Hi,

I’m running Mopidy, installed from Homebrew, on OS X 10.10.3. I’m running the latest version (1.0.5).

Suddenly, when listening to songs via Soundcloud and without any warning, mopidy crashed, and I cannot make it start using `launchd`. It starts just fine when started via the `mopidy` command, but when I try to use `launchd`, the following happens:

```
com.apple.xpc.launchd[1]: (homebrew.mopidy.mopidy[2555]) Service exited with abnormal code: 1
com.apple.xpc.launchd[1]: (homebrew.mopidy.mopidy) Service only ran for 0 seconds. Pushing respawn out by 10 seconds.
com.apple.xpc.launchd[1]: (homebrew.mopidy.mopidy[2593]) Service exited with abnormal code: 1
com.apple.xpc.launchd[1]: (homebrew.mopidy.mopidy) Service only ran for 0 seconds. Pushing respawn out by 10 seconds.
com.apple.xpc.launchd[1]: (homebrew.mopidy.mopidy[2643]) Service exited with abnormal code: 1
com.apple.xpc.launchd[1]: (homebrew.mopidy.mopidy) Service only ran for 0 seconds. Pushing respawn out by 10 seconds.

```

The same happens after a restart, and I have tried to reinstall Mopidy.

Any suggestions on what may be the cause of this?
