Audacious - OLD, PLEASE USE GITHUB DISCUSSIONS/ISSUES

The power went off due to a damaged transformer to my laptop. Some data was corrupted, including audacious package stuff. I've tried purging it and the plugins. Reboot. Do a fresh install via apt-get. Every thing goes well until I try to run it. I've tried to solve the problems by googling the errors to no avail. I prefer audacious over other packages and I don't want to deal with an entire fresh install of the OS. So here's the error codes, and yes I also fresh installed the plugins. Please help. I've got chronic health issues and being able to easily set things up to listen to music or talk shows while in bed helps pass the time while my life painfully goes on.

(Did you forget to install audacious-plugins?)

I tried tackling the D-Bus error to no avail. It seems that something outside of the audacious package upstream must be corrupted but I can't figure out what even with the google search hits I get on this same error for others.

Many thanks in advance and I will keep checking in to work with any one who can provide guidance.

Regards.
