Can't log in on linux client

I can't log in through linux client. I works normally through the Android app and the web player. But, on the linux client I get the message "A firewall may be blocking Spotify. Please update your firewall to allow Spotify. Additionally you could try change the currently used proxy settings (Error code: auth:16)". I already tried changing the proxy settings, but it didn't solve the problem. Can anybody help me?

I was able to resolve it by deleting the following folders:
/home/draylson/.cache/spotify

/home/draylson/.config/spotify

It's showing: No such file or directory

I installed spotify on Debian12/Linux, through sudo snap.

And your solution is not working for me.
