Ok. The following code in modules.Library.loadLibrary looks wrong to me:
prevChar = None
...
for artist in pickleLoad(os.path.join(path, 'artists')):
if len(artist[ART_NAME]) != 0: ...
else: currChar = prevChar # At this point currChar may be None
if prevChar is None or (...): # prevChar may still be None
prevChar = currChar # prevChar still is None
if currChar.isdigit(): # currChar is None -> bug
This happens for you as your first artist in the index (it's sorted
alphabetically) is '', so "len(artist[ART_NAME])" is 0, so currChar is set to
None.
The other problem here is that AFAICS the artist tag shouldn't be empty, but
either the artist tag from the audio file, or UNKNOWN_ARTIST, which is
_("Unknown Artist"). Unfortunately I haven't found where the source of the issue
may be.

Thanks. The first artist shows the name is ''. I've created a library with an
album whose songs don't have an artist tag and $libPath/artists looks like this:
(lp1
(S'Unknown Artist'
p2
S'0'
I1
tp3
a.
You can look at /home/corsac/.config/decibel-audio-player/Library/MP3/0/ and see
what files are affected.
