librespot can be configured to start writing audio to a pipe that you have added

The easiest way of accomplishing this may be with [Spocon](https://github.com/spocon/spocon),
since it requires minimal configuration. After installing, create two pipes
(with mkfifo) and set the configuration in the player section:
```
# Audio output device (MIXER, PIPE, STDOUT)
output = "PIPE"
# Output raw (signed) PCM to this file (`player.output` must be PIPE)
pipe = "/srv/music/spotify"
# Output metadata in Shairport Sync format (https://github.com/mikebrady/shairport-sync-metadata-reader)
metadataPipe = "/srv/music/spotify.metadata"
```
