@sewnie commented on GitHub (Jan 9, 2023):

cargo install spotify_player --force --no-default-features --features alsa-backend solves.
however, im very glad that this can replace the problems with spotify-tui and some missing features of ncspot. thank you @aome510 et al. for making this project.

i think it would be alot better if #97 was implemented.
