Spotify Stream Will Not Play

From a fresh image of musicbox_v0.7.0RC6:
I’m unable to play Spotify using my Premium account and I’m unable to figure out where the error might be located. Here are the logs when I try to play and my mopidy config. What else should I check? I’ve deleted and set up the account details multiple times in case I typo’ed something.

I just confirmed that the Spotify credentials work fine on the MusicBox. I’m able to play music through Spotify Web Browse without any issues. It just fails to do anything when I try to play a Spotify URI on the Streams page. I also can’t save a stream on that page, but that’s not too big of a deal.

Hi, sorry to say that Spotify playlists are currently broken. This is due to Spotify changing something in the old API that we use. A fix to use their updated API is in progress but not ready yet.

Thanks! I was about to reply here that I finally found you guys talking about it here: https://github.com/mopidy/mopidy-spotify/issues/182

That would explain what I’m seeing! Thanks for responding!
