[Solved] Cantata fails to connect to mpd

Hi.

After a while i tried to use Cantata but i got an 'Failed to send command to "Music" (localhost:6600) - not connected' error. I tried to troubleshoot the usual problems (set mpd to use localhost, to use 127.0.0.1, configured hosts file for localhost.localdomain) but nothing helps. But if i start Cantata with kdesu (i'm on Plasma 5 and have all the updates) it works fine. Anyone got similar problems?

Nevermind.  Deleting the Cantata config file resolved the problem.
