This branch depends on #1064 to function in the field

I'd like to take note that we stress tested this earlier with multiple people playing tug of war with the volume slider using a Spotify jam and the underlying Spotify stream failed before the script did, according to the logs

It's unclear how the underlying stream failed, and perhaps this is solved with the bump from go-librespot 0.5.0 to 0.5.2, but it's hard to say until we put it through another office-wide stress test (I simply am not able to input enough changes myself even though I am able to create a multi account jam session)

One thing that we should do is test what the update speed is by logging all of the requests. Realistically we may want to limit the response to 10Hz or something just to avoid overwhelming the Spotify and amplipi APIs.

Whats going on here?

[SteveMicroNova]

Typically when I expect to change frontend things, I start from the page that thing is on and then trace my way through the components until I find what I'm actually looking for. Sometimes while doing that I'll see that my linter is mad about something and just fix it because I don't expect to have a linting focused PR any time soon, which can lead to some drive-by fixes like this that aren't really related to anything else

in this instance it was mostly stuff being unhappy about semicolons and where they are or aren't

[SteveMicroNova]

Note that the vol sync will not work on systems that are effected by #1067, which are all systems that reboot while playing a persistent stream

Volume is out of sync and stopped changing from spotify. I think this needs a little more testing.

Changing volume via amplipis app still works when it goes out of sync
