spotify-tui Sonos is not detected

The official spotify gui client can see Sonos, but spotify-tui can't detect it. Are there steps or configuration needed for this? My Sonos device is Sonos One, if that matters. Thanks.

spotify-tui uses the spotify web api to fetch available devices (a simple GET request), this could be an issue with their public API

this is the related issue on the spotify repo looks like it is simply not possible at the moment https://github.com/spotify/web-api/issues/525

@flipjs you might wanna check again, my Sonos doesn't show up as a restricted device anymore, and the spotify API allows me to control it. This must be pretty new, as I had to use a workaround until 1-2 weeks ago.

i also cannot connect to my Sonos ARC +Sub via sonos-tui (or Sonos Web)

Update from me as well, Sonos became a restricted device shortly after I said it wasn't... so it was only usable through the API directly for a short time.

Update on this, Sonos doesn't seem to work due to an expected string coming back as a null; if I have to guess, one of the API messages received is mandatory, and the parsing doesn't like it; Spotify returns the name of the device as I saw it in the error message when music is playing from my Sonos, so most likely some parsing error.
