Go and Redisgo: DialURL error: NOAUTH Authentication required

I'm trying to connect to my Redis server using Go and redigo with a URI that works on another application, written in Java with lettuce. On the Go project, I'm getting the error

NOAUTH Authentication required.

My redis.conf has requirepass true, and I pass the password in the URI. Here's how I connect:

conn, err := redis.DialURL("redis://MySecurePassword@localhost:6666/0")
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal("Not able to connect to Redis")
    }

No errors there. The error shows when I try to run a command to retrieve data.

writeOrErr(&b, conn, "HGETALL", "mykey")

// Wrapper for redis.Conn.Do that writes the result to a buffer or reports the error
func writeOrErr(b *bytes.Buffer, conn redis.Conn, cmd string, key string) string {
    result, err := conn.Do(cmd, key)
    if err != nil {
        // !!! THE ERROR HAPPENS HERE !!!
        log.Fatalf("Couldn't run %s \"%s\" | Error: %s", cmd, key, err.Error())
    }

    // Retrieve data
    _, err = b.WriteString(result.(string))
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal("Couldn't write result to string for " + key)
    }

    return result.(string)
}

Am I using redigo's API improperly? How can I make it connect?

The URL does not match the redis URI scheme specification. The userinfo field should be in the format "user:password"
