To play spotify songs you need a gstreamer spotify plugin from the gst-plugins-rs package usually not available on most systems. Also, currently it is necessary to use a modified version of the plugin.

   git clone https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/kingosticks/gst-plugins-rs
   cd gst-plugins-rs
   git checkout spotify-uri-handler
   cargo cbuild --release -p gst-plugin-spotify
   sudo cp ./target/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/release/libgstspotify.so /usr/lib64/gstreamer-1.0/
