I would look at the 'solution' comment posted in #837

https://github.com/aome510/spotify-player/issues/837#issuecomment-3321454295

I do not know if it's the recommended solution since everyone has their own specific issues, but it worked for me.

It also worked for me. Just do rm -rf ~/.cache/spotify-player and then run spotify_player again. It will prompt you to login again.
