    spotify_player does not authenticate

This is current/amd64 with spotify-player-0.20.4p0

Running spotify_player for the first time, I am told

                                               
No cached credentials found, please authenticate the application first.
Browse to: https://accounts.spotify.com/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=65b708073fc0480ea92a077233ca87bd&state=RpzGpRCUeS8ZXh5g_TCZQA&code_challenge=mJnXwXp7v5TJsszsjRCHp1kV6ylalEJXItgNpzp9Ch0&code_challenge_method=S256&redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2F127.0.0.1%3A8989%2Flogin&scope=app-remote-control+playlist-modify+playlist-modify-private+playlist-modify-public+playlist-read+playlist-read-collaborative+playlist-read-private+streaming+ugc-image-upload+user-follow-modify+user-follow-read+user-library-modify+user-library-read+user-modify+user-modify-playback-state+user-modify-private+user-personalized+user-read-birthdate+user-read-currently-playing+user-read-email+user-read-play-history+user-read-playback-position+user-read-playback-state+user-read-private+user-read-recently-played+user-top-read

which I did, and the page says

	Spotify for Desktop
	My User
	Not you?

	Continue to the app

That's it. I am already logged in.
There is no way to "authenticate".

Clicking on "Not you" logs me out,
I log in again, and get the same page.

Clicking on "Continue to the app"
does nothing and waits forever.
