linux-armhf-full doesn't have pulseaudio as backend

[desolateunicorn]

Description I've downloaded the three most recent linux-armhf-full binaries and after running spotifyd --help. The backend options shows only The audio backend to use [possible values: alsa].

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. wget https://github.com/Spotifyd/spotifyd/releases/download/v0.3.3/spotifyd-linux-armhf-full.tar.gz
2. tar xzvf spotifyd-linux-armhf-full.tar.gz
3. ./spotifyd --help
4. See -b, --backend <string> The audio backend to use [possible values: alsa]

Expected behavior The pulseaudio backend should be available.

Thank you for the report! There are currently several pressing issues with CD and #992 was/is an attempt to fix that. Unfortunately, configuring that correctly is quite complicated due to the many hoops one has to jump through to cross build with all the non-rust libraries, this project depends on. This is probably also the reason, why pulseaudio isn't enabled by default on armhf.

Nonetheless, you can always try to compile spotifyd yourself on the RPi. (I've done it several times already myself, it takes quite some time, but it's much easier than cross building in my experience.) See here for some very rough instructions. Then you can decide, yourself, which features you'd like to enable.
