Sorry to interfere, but it works for me.
QLMS on a QNAP (intel), LMS 8.0.1, Spotty 4.5.4
There have been a couple of failures (*), due to the changes Michael had
introduced in the Spotty custom-convert.conf and helper, but now all
seems OK: either activating or not ReplayGain in Spotty.
Actually, I have decided to turn it off and apply -5 dB in the global
streaming options, because this seems to match well the ReplayGain
settings of my private library (tags calculated at -18 dB LUFS with
dBpoweramp). Playing the same songs I perceive the same sound volume.
ReplayGain in Spotify is calculated at -14 dB LUFS, from the link posted
a few pages earlier.

(*) I use SoX for equalization, and I have a custom-convert for that,
also for Spotify streams: last weekend I blindly upgraded Spotty without
testing, and then left leaving my son for a party with his friends.
Needless to say, playing was broken (I had no idea I had to re-tweak my
custom-convert, due the new changes introduced): it will take a while to
be forgiven... ;-) 

PS: from what I understood from the Spotify pages, they level ALL music
at -14 dB LUFS, which is the "normal" setting (or no setting). The
"loud" and "quiet" are -11 dB and -23 dB respectively (and the "dynamic"
normalisation seems to be a peak limiter. I found some more useful info
at the 'librespot options'
(https://github.com/librespot-org/librespot/wiki/Options) page)
