Problems with languagetool + TexStudio

I am trying to get languagetool to work with my texstudio client, but I have not been successful.

I have seen solutions like this but the recommendation here is essentially just to use the default settings.

Checking Help -> Check LanguageTool returns

which java: /usr/bin/java

JAVA: java
openjdk version "1.8.0_275"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_275-b01)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.275-b01, mixed mode)

Real-time checking is enabled.
Grammar checking is enabled.

Tries to start automatically.

LT current status: error
LT path " /usr/share/languagetool:/usr/share/java/languagetool/* " not found !

LT-URL: http://localhost:8081/v2/check

I am able to start LanguageTool manually by writing languagetool in the command line, which results in

[morten@thinkpad ~]$ languagetool 
2021-02-07 18:16:45 +0000 Setting up thread pool with 10 threads
2021-02-07 18:16:45 +0000 Starting LanguageTool 5.1 (build date: 2020-09-25 13:26, a0b1257) server on http://localhost:8081...
2021-02-07 18:16:45 +0000 Server started

So the client is able to start, and is able to start a server. Any recommendations regarding how to fix the auto-start within texstudio? My guess is perhaps there is something with my java setup? I would like to avoid running languagetool from startup if possible.
