Linux implementation of spotify client based on dbus is broken.

See original GitHub issue

I installed the extension on the following system:

Version: 1.50.1
Commit: d2e414d9e4239a252d1ab117bd7067f125afd80a
Date: 2020-10-13T14:44:48.716Z
Electron: 9.2.1
Chrome: 83.0.4103.122
Node.js: 12.14.1
V8: 8.3.110.13-electron.0
OS: Linux x64 5.4.0-51-generic (Ubuntu 20.04)

I can control spotify with commands just fine, but all I can see on the status bar is the signout button as shown below.
