I have a raspberry pi 3 and a hifiberry dacbpro. I downloaded the hifiberry OS and connected with Spotify connect on my phone. Great sound and all was well. But now it just refuses to connect the icon for hifiberry on Spotify just says connecting...but it never does. Aghhhhh! Can anyone help? I've tried rewiring the software tried a different SD card...nothing seems to solve this.

  Same here.
  
  I am running Spotify (Premium Account) on MacOS 11.2.1.
  I have an RPi 4b+ with DAC2 Pro + DSP Module, running v.20210203.
  Spotify.app can see HifiBerry (Spotify Connect) but when I press to connect, nothing happens. The output from systemctl status spotify.service is:
