This looks promising. I always yearned for Foobar2000 to be on Linux natively.
However layout editor part is quite confusing (adding widgets seem to add them not where I want them at), and I couldn’t get it to play any music, as both drag and drop to a playlist and open file option in the menu causes the program to crash. Plugins didn’t load at all until I manually copied them to the places fooyin was looking for, though I wonder if this is an AUR package issue or not.
I’ll keep using DeaDBeeF despite some complaints I have with it for the time being, and will keep a close eye on this one.
Its something happened waaay back during the technical preview days. Just like with this instance, the workaround was to rename the installer executable.

And I think you should update to OpenShell at least.
