It looks like certain names don't work on discover mode. All my initial testing was using "librespot@$HOSTNAME" (eg: librespot@athena.barrera.io".

I debugged fiddled around for quite a while thinking discovery was broken, and it's not -- unless you use . in the name (The @ looks okay though)t. This is probably not the only invalid character (maybe it needs escaping?).


Actually the problem is probably some form of escaping, since the official spotify client does work with . in the device name.
