Skill took to long to respond when playing playlists

[knurp5]

I have geemusic running on Docker on a digitalocean droplet.
Everything works fine, but playlists constantly run into a timeout (skill took too long to respond).
I tried to increase the CPUs of the droplet without success.

When I use the Alexa developer portal to debug the request for "alexa ask geemusic to play playlist audiotest", I see the following output: The requested skill took too long to respond.

@knurp5 how long is your playlist? If your playlist is VERY long, can you try it with a smaller playlist. We might need to return portions of the playlist at a time, or something else. It might be choking on loading every song in the playlist.

I tested several scenarios, my playlist audiotest has 21 songs only and runs into the same timeout.
