I’m not sure if I’m doing something wrong, but when I first tried to get this plugin working, I left all the priorities blank and whenever trying to start a speaker I would get “Error while trying to play.”.

Once i added at least one priority to each room it started working.

Anything else I could have been doing wrong?

That's by design of what this plugin does. :) In order to group one room to another, it has to know what order of priority you want the other zones to be in. For example:

You have three zones; living room, kitchen, and bedroom. If you're playing different things in both the living room and your bedroom, and now you want to group the kitchen, how do you know what the kitchen is joining? Setting the zone priorities in this plugin deals with that logic. So if you set Living Room and then bedroom as your priorities for the kitchen, this is the order in which the plugin will check currently playing zones, and join the first one that's playing in the priority list. Let me know if this doesn't make sense :)
