This symptom might occur, if you have installed the flatpak version of Kodi. In this situation, Kodi is running in a sandbox.
You can grant access to the home folder with flatseal (gui) or with "flatpak override" command. Something similar like

Code:
sudo flatpak override --filesystem= /home/$USER/ tv.kodi.Kodi

The command you provided does nothing, except an error.

Code:
error: Unknown filesystem location , valid locations are: host, host-os, host-etc, home, xdg-*[/…], ~/dir, /dir

So i did it via GUI, and it worked.

Thanks.
