[PROBLEM] Spotify playing, but it is not

[DezoM]

Hi all,
I've just installed Moode on Pi3+Suptronics X400v3. Radio is playing fine. However when I'll try to play from Spotify it's silent. I see Moode Spotify in Spotify client, Moode web interface is showing that Spotify is active, but speakers are silent. Volume control doesn't make a change.

I assume that it will be something stupid, however I can't figure what. Searching here didn't help me to find thread with similar problem.

I have mixer type set to hardware as X400 guide recommends it and potentiometer works fine

Thank you for any hint.

Volume for the renderers including Spotify is controlled on the sending client i.e., your Smartphone, Tablet etc.

Hmm according to logs, it should works:

Do I have chance to verify that backend/device is correct one? Command below is extracted from px -aux | grep spot

Code:

sudo librespot --verbose --name Moode Spotify --bitrate 160 --initial-volume 80 --volume-ctrl log --cache /var/local/www/spotify_cache --disable-audio-cache --backend alsa --device plughw:0 --onevent /var/local/www/commandw/spotevent.sh

Ok its solved. Spotify was VERY quite. I've changed max volume in Alsa settings to 100% and it's much better.
