Some tracks report as unavailable when spotify is not run as admin

When using the Spotify PC application some songs will report as not available if the application is not started using the administrator account. Full message: "This song is not available. If you have the file on your computer you can import it".

 

The songs are available to play through the web player and if the application is run as admin.  In general, it appears to be full albums at a time that report as being unavailable in this way.  They are not greyed out, just report that they are unavailable to play.

 

Windows Application Version: 1.0.54.1079.g3809528e

The cause was outdated audio drivers.  Update via device manager, restart and that resolved the issue for me.
