Only approachable via Spotify on computer not via phone #269

Since updating both my raspberry and I think the spotify app on my phone (Android), I can no longer approach Librespot directly from my phone. When I setup a connect session via the computer I am able to use my phone as a remote.

Any ideas? I found out that the Spotify app does the same with Sonos lately

If this is occurring with Sonos as well, wouldn't that indicate it's a Spotify issue? It sounds like they've broken casting on android completely. Did you end up with any solution to this? I was considering switching back to Android again and this would be sad if this is the case.

I suspect this is your issue:

Downgrading the android app should solve your problem. That's a pretty bad bug!
