5. Steps to reproduce the issue:

and restart the client

Thanks for your help!

I had the same problem but i manage to fix it by disableling the local files in settings.

This really shouldn't be a thing.

I had the same problem wtih the version I downloaded from Ubuntu Software. I had to rollback to a previous version (1.0.69.336.g7edcc575).
I typed the following command line to install the previous version:
sudo apt-get install spotify-client
