Textfile that shows console while elisa is runnig with and without root

SUMMARY

Elisa's UI is broken (missing elements, almost unreadable etc...), but  the UI looks fine with root privileges. In both cases no audio files can be seen (with exceptions) or be played (no exceptions), no matter the location. Also when i try to do a run with gdb without root, elisa won't even show up, with root elisa starts but gdb begins to hang. backtrace was doable with root. Elisa worked fine for me on Linux Mint 20, since 21 Vanessa, it's completly broken. Install is fresh on a wiped hard drive.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Start Elisa, via menu, console ("elisa" or "sudo elisa")
2.  Select any folder ("/home/username/Music" in my case) to be the music folder
3. click on "read music collection" to initialize the music library
4. Click on, for example, "albums" or "files"

OBSERVED RESULT

No Music files show up. If you browse the system under "files", without root, elisa sees music files but cannot play them. When i give elisa root and click on "files" no audio files show up at all, only a empty desktop folder.


EXPECTED RESULT

Elisa should see and play my music files and ad them to it's library.

> QStandardPaths: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to '/tmp/runtime-root'
It would appear that your system is broken; many things won't work properly when the XDG dirs aren't set up properly. I would recommend asking for help fixing your system in the Mint forums. Perhaps the upgrade process broke? Unfortunately this is a fairly common occurrence with Mint, in my experience.

Also please don't run GUI apps as root; it will usually cause breakage that can't be easily fixed later without detailed knowledge of the system's structure and internals.
