My App started so far that I could empty with the trash icon. But see

I don't think the song count is a problem (I have 939 titles).

Just out of curiosity, could you try that, in the terminal app or
ssh[1]:

(The >>> is the python3 prompt)

$ python3
>>> import mpris2
>>> uri = next(mpris2.get_players_uri())
>>> player = mpris2.Player(dbus_interface_info:{'dbus_uri': uri})
>>> player.Play()
>>> exit()

At player.Play() your Music should be start playing. (Your log looks
like the App has an loaded playing queue.)

Maybe you also could try to empty the Queue from the App's database.
>From terminal app or ssh:

$ cd .local/share/com.ubuntu.music/Databases
$ tail *.ini
$ # locate the ini with "name=music-app-metadata", i.e.
b01631344d4b1a36d6dec3179aff8784.ini
$ sqlite3 b01631344d4b1a36d6dec3179aff8784.sqlite "DELETE FROM queue;"


P.S. Do not top-post[2], use interleaved style, makes it easier to
read.

Hi,Sorry for a late reply and many thanks for help!
Python3 throws out an ImportError "No module named 'mpris2' ".
sqlite3 b01631344d4b1a36d6dec3179aff8784.sqlite "DELETE FROM queue;"
makes some job- the app loads one step further and then crashes :-)
