I got it working! Thank you so much. The bash script ended up being this:

source "/Users/Trevor/.bashrc"
ruby ./myscript.rb "{query}"

Thank you so much for the answer.

I get an error when I try to build the gem:

sudo gem install sonos-0.3.4.gem
Building native extensions.  This could take a while...

Is this an easy fix, or is there another way to include gems?

Thanks again in advance!

I have spent almost 8 hours on this and I know it's an easy fix.

I want to use this fork of the Sonos Ruby gem.

The problem: I don't know how to require/include the gem, neither locally as a cloned copy or as a regular "require gem_name". The script runs fine in IRB, but when I try to run it in a workflow the sound doesn't pause. 

I thought it might be because my system Ruby is old, but I use Mavericks so that shouldn't be a problem.

You can download the Workflow here from my Dropbox. And here's a SO question with more info, too.

Any help is really appreciated. I am ready to tear my hair out on this.
