Public bug reported:

Music metadata is not showing up when I send music files via Telegram
Desktop, either by dragging and dropping the files or by sending them
with the paperclip icon.

Ubuntu Version:
18.10

Package Version:
1.4.0-1 (from the Cosmic universe repository)

Steps to reproduce: 
1. Install this package from apt
2. Go to a chat
3. Drag a music file onto the chat window (or use the attach files button to 
select it)

Expected behavior:
(see screenshot)
Expected music files to display their title and artist name both in the dialog 
asking to confirm sending the file, and in the chat. 

What happened instead:
Music files appeared as their file name, both in the confirmation dialog and in 
the chat. Some strange behavior appeared to happen as well concerning MP3 vs 
OGG Vorbis files; MP3 files showed their tags correctly on other devices as 
well as in the Telegram Desktop application after being forwarded; however, OGG 
Vorbis files showed up as a filename in all cases.
Running the program in terminal produced the following error message in yellow 
text upon uploading an OGG Vorbis file:

Invalid return value 0 for stream protocol
Invalid return value 0 for stream protocol

No message was produced upon uploading an MP3 file.

** Affects: telegram-desktop (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Attachment added: "Top is expected behavior, bottom is what actually 
happened. The top file is an MP3, and did not show its tags upon first sending, 
but did show its tags after being forwarded. The bottom file is an OGG Vorbis 
file, and did not show its tags upon sending or being forwarded."
