When i start librespot from the terminal everything works fine, but when i start it as a service i get the following errors and no sound:

jorrit@pine64:~/Programs/libs/librespot/target/release$ sudo systemctl status librespot.service

On occasion it does work, don´t know why, but what i see then is that the backend is not pulseaudio but alsa. Anyone got any idea what this could be?

my service file looks like this

@QJKX commented on GitHub (Jun 13, 2018):

There's a pulseaudio process in the output of systemctl - instead what you probably wanted was for librespot to connect to the pulseaudio you already had running.

https://blog.louiz.org/pulseaudio_mpd looks relevant

MPD could not find the already-running pulseaudio instance because the environment variable XDG_RUNTIME_DIR was not set, and that’s where pulseaudio stores its files (the socket, the process pid, etc).

you are correct, adding Environment=XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/1000 fixed it. Thanks!
