Cannot get Desktop Application to Load (Linux)

Solved!

Cannot get Desktop Application to Load (Linux)

 I have gone through all the different troubleshooting I can find. 

Spotify shows up on my dash, but opening the application produces no results.

Running spotify from the terminal yields:
spotify: error while loading shared libraries: libgcrypt.so.11: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

 

Anyone have any ideas? I'm reasonably new to Linux, using Ubuntu Gnome.

 

If it's relevant, the web player works seemingly without any issue.
