I've had this same error with Qobuz some time ago. It seemed to be account related. Have you tested this with a different account?

I am just leaving a comment that this bug is still not resolved. I haven't done a deep dive on the code but judging from the error message it looks like it failed to get a response back from Tidal when making some sort of request. This is probably due to some sort of timeout on requests. I noticed when I was power downloading some albums and had multiple terminal tabs open that sometimes downloads would fail because Tidal would kick you for making too many requests in X period of time (never really found out how long that was, just waited a bit and tried again).

So if you are downloading a full artist or a bunch of albums concurrently this seems to get thrown. For sure when downloading an artists wholesale. I found just coming back to it after a brief period has resolved it.

EDIT: Maybe need to adjust the requests_per_minute in the config to be lower than 60.
