Describe the bug
Playing a specific song if in a playlist or liked songs, will refuse to play if requested to play from the terminal player view, but when playing it from an external spotify client it works.

To Reproduce

  1. Add the song 'Boards of Canada - Turquoise Hexagon Sun' to a playlist
  2. Play it from spotify-player

Expected behavior
The song plays.

Log and backtrace
When playing from spotify-player, the log just says it tries to play it:

2023-11-08T17:03:15.071059Z  INFO client_request{request=Player(StartPlayback(Context(Playlist(PlaylistId("1u2stAfUt4B546W380hjD9")), Some(Uri("spotify:track:7F3MjS1b1xHeaeXyBTvCE0"))), None))}: spotify_player::client: successfully handled the client request, took: 606ms

Nothing actually happens.

However, if i play the same song from the official spotify client, and attempt to connect to it from spotify-player, both clients die:

Environment

  • Application version: 0.15.2
  • Application features: alsa backend, notify, lyrics and media control

Additional context
To re-iterate, Playing this song from spotify_player does nothing. Playing this song from the official spotify client connected to spotify_player plays as normal. Playing this song from spotify_player connected to the official spotify client causes both ends to die, as seen in the log above.

Correct album. The description of my bug specifically and clearly states to put the song in a playlist first then play it from that playlist.

Can you elaborate, e.g what is the song, how to reproduce, etc?
