SDRPlay device isn't recognised

I'm attempting to use my new SDRPlay in GnuRadio and when I hit the "Run" button the following appears in the message area...


Using Volk machine: sse4_2_64
gr-osmosdr 0.1.4 (0.1.4) gnuradio 3.7.7.1
built-in source types: file fcd rtl rtl_tcp uhd hackrf bladerf rfspace

FATAL: No supported devices found to pick from.

Trying to fill up 1 missing channel(s) with null source(s).
This is being done to prevent the application from crashing
due to gnuradio bug #528.

It doesn't look like there's a driver assigned for this device.

My /etc/udev/rules.d/66-mirics.rules file looks like this...
SUBSYSTEM=="usb",ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device",ATTRS{idVendor}=="1df7",ATTRS{idProduct}=="2500",MODE:="0666"

I have followed the installation notes to the best of my understanding, so I'm a bit stumped.

The hardware itself is fine because it works like a champ in Windows & HDSDR.

Can someone help me to resolve this please?

You seem to be using an old version of gr-osmsdr which does not support SDRPlay.
