Description

I've installed the latest version of this add-on from Kodi/LibreElec Repositories but Kodi restarts whenever I enter a directory with SIDs in it. I've mapped themm as NFS storage from my server.

Environment:
LibreElec 8.02, offiicial AMD64 build on Intel NUC with Apollo Lake CPU

Kodi Log with Debugging enabled:

15:23:35.891 T:140095039015040   DEBUG:   ParentPath = [/storage/music/Soundtrack/Gamez/C64/SID/GAMES/]
15:23:35.924 T:140095039015040   DEBUG: ADDON: Dll Initializing - Sidplay Audio Decoder
15:23:35.928 T:140095039015040  NOTICE: ADDON: Loaded virtual child addon special://temp/audiodecoder.sidplay-0.0

15:23:35.928 T:140095039015040   DEBUG: Loading: /storage/.kodi/temp/audiodecoder.sidplay-0.0

Anything I can do to prevent this restart and listen to good old SIDs on my Kodi installation?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the restart when entering a directory containing SID files on the stated LibreELEC/Kodi environment, using the provided debug log as the initial trace. Inspect the addon-loading path shown in the log and determine what prevents Kodi from restarting; done means SID directories can be opened and files can be played without a restart.
