I've been experiencing the same problem. Turned out that the terminal crashed, because it couldn't display some emojis (which I had in some playlist names) or some other unicode symbol. I fixed it by installing the ttf-symbola font (AUR if you're using arch), as recommended by the ArchWiki. This fixed the issue for me.

Thanks for this @LU15W1R7H. Sounds like this isn't an issue with spotify-tui
