Hey!
I'm running spt (pulseaudio) with spotifyd and for some reason the shuffle is not working. When I have the daemon running by itself and press ctrl-s the shuffle turns on but it doesnt actually shuffle, it just moves onto the next song. When I have the daemon connected to my phone however, the songs do shuffle.

Hey man, I'm pretty sure this is an issue of implementation - either in spotifyd or librespot because spt picks up shuffling and sets it if i use the web player or official client. It's spotifyd that can't shuffle for whatever reason
