Discogs plugin issue - TypeError: can only join an iterable

[Gwouigwoui]

Problem

Ran into this problem importing a specific album and also individual tracks of said album. Issue happened both with flac files freshly created from a flac+cue set using foobar, and with existing alac files. I removed all the metadata except title, album and artist, and the issue persisted.

Definitely feels like same issue as #5468.
