In hledger mode included UTF-8 journal causes failure to sync

Describe your Environment
OS: Mac Sonoma intel
Paisa Version: 0.5.3 (tweaked by author)
App Variant: Desktop
Locale: en-US
Describe the bug
Opening paisa via spotlight fails to sync for a hledger configuration when a main journal includes another journal that is in UTF-8 because of non-ASCII characters.
To Reproduce
- place the attached journals in some directory
- configure paisa to point to
main.journaland be inhledgermode - ensure paisa is launched via Spotlight
- try to sync
- observe an error per below:
Expected behavior
Sync succeeds just like in ledger mode.
@gitting I tried the sample file you provided, still can't reproduce the issue. What is your hledger version? I am using 1.31
PS:
hledger has some info about this error

https://hledger.org/install.html?highlight=invalid%20byte%20sequence#check-your-locale
It only happens when paisa is started via Spotlight. If from terminal then it's fine.
The hledger is 1.31 installed via homebrew:
hledger 1.31, mac-x86_64
Usage: hledger CMD [OPTS] [-- ADDONCMDOPTS]
The $LANG is en_US.UTF-8.
Anyway, it is not a show-stopper for me as I'm planning to use paisa in ledger mode anyway. Or start it from terminal - will figure it out. Maybe it's just some weird combination on my machine since I also have haskell installed explicitly.
It is working fine now, thanks!
