502 error when transferring user playback #1575

Open nigel opened 4 years ago

nigel commented 4 years ago

Issue found on May 6th, 2020. A quick google search found that issue #700 from three years ago had a similar issue.

I'm trying to activate a device remotely that's marked as inactive without having user intervention. #680 recommended to transfer user playback to the inactive device. Is there a better way to do so?

Endpoint(s):

Scope(s):

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Get list of devices from GET /v1/me/player/devices
  2. Select a device with the following: is_restricted: false and is_active: false
  3. Use that device ID to call PUT /v1/me/player with the json payload: {"device_ids":[{device_id}],play:true}

Expected behavior:

The device should become active and I'm able to use web API to control that device.

Actual behavior:

502 Bad Gateway (consistently)
