Hi!
First of all a lot of compliments and gratitude for this project, I got it to work on my Pi yesterday and am very happy with it. I have four questions though.

(1) When pressing the volume buttons on my phone while in the Spotify app, the app shows the volume of Spotify go up and down, but the volume of my music stays the same. Is this a known issue? Is there a way to fix it?

(2) The volume coming from the Pi seems to be remarkably lower than from for instance my phone. The alsamixer is set to 100% already. (Maybe the spotify volume is set to something low and I cannot get it to max because of above issue (1)?).

(3) The audio quality from the Pi seems quite a bit worse than from my phone. My speakers are able to project very clear high pitched drums and stuff like that and when playing a song from my phone, I can notably hear the details more than when playing from the pi. I did set the bitrate to 320 in the config already. Is this just the RPi soundcard being poor compared to my phone (OnePlus One)? I know this is a highly subjective question but maybe someone knows...

(4) When skipping through numbers and disconnecting and reconnecting (don't know what I did exactly) the daemon crashed. Logs are saying this:

Apr 24 16:48:32 raspberrypi Spotifyd[1062]: Caught panic with message: called Option::unwrap() on a None value
Apr 24 16:49:44 raspberrypi Spotifyd[1062]: Caught panic with message: called Result::unwrap() on an Err value: "SendError(..)"

I am running the precompiled ARMv7 binary on a RPi 2B Jessie.

Thanks in advance!
Cheers Rick
