Specifically set `--zeroconf-port <number>` either via command line or in the configuration file, and allow connections with `sudo ufw allow <number>`
I tried a similar project a few years ago, using [MPD](https://www.musicpd.org/) and spotify plugin, but at the time it was too unreliable. Thanks to the folks who spent the time creating spotifyd!
