Audacity VS 'locale'?

Audacity is refusing to launch (AGAIN) on both Slowroll AND Tumbleweed, looks like maybe because of 'LOCALE' (AGAIN) ..but why does a freakin' wave editor need 'locale' at all and why do I keep running into locale problems on opensuse (no issues on Artix, Devuan, Slackware, AvLinux)? https://paste.opensuse.org/pastes/d108bcf3f42e
