Tried to take an offer (a BSQ Swap), after hitting the “CONFIRM: TAKE OFFER…” button, the log shows the following:

INFO b.c.t.p.b.BsqSwapProtocol: Received ackMessage AckMessage{  
uid=…  
senderNodeAddress=…  
sourceType=TRADE\_MESSAGE,  
sourceMsgClassName=‘BsqSwapFinalizeTxRequest’,  
sourceUid=…  
sourceId=…  
success=false,  
errorMessage=‘An error occurred at task: BuyerAsMakerCreatesAndSignsFinalizedTx  
Exception message: **Could not decrypt bytes** ’  
}

Wallet looks ok, and no BTCs are removed. But looks stuck in the “TAKE OFFER” screen. Tried restarting UI, but same result.
