Thank you for figuring out the workaround. I think there is no clear
category for this bug, but since you discussed it extensively on a Kodi
forum I set it as forwarded and since it could be fixed upstream I'm
also marking it upstream.
Upstream showed no significant interest in fixing it, hence the wontfix tag.

In case this gets fixed in newer releases please close this bug and mark
it as fixed.

Thanks,
Balint
