Hi Everyone,

I’m running Musicbox 0.6 on a RPI 2, and and it seems Spotify needs a few hours to start working properly after booting.

Immediately after booting it steams music from Youtube and Soundcloud without a problem, but if I try to play something from Spotify it plays maybe the first second of a song and then stops. If I wait a few hours it plays from Spotify without a problem too.

Has anyone else seen this? Any idea what the problem is?

Thanks,

Simon
