Strange behavior of TexMaths

Using Libreoffice 7.3.7.2 with TexMaths on KDE Neon 5.27.

When I write a latex formula in a Writer document and then click on the pi symbol, TexMaths converts the formula nicely. However, when I open TexMaths directly with the pi symbol, either to add a new formula or edit an already-existing one, TexMaths displays a message saying

BASIC runtime error.
An exception occurred
Type: com.sun.star.lang.WrappedTargetRuntimeException
Message:./scripting/source/digprov/digprov.css:589

So TexMaths has become unusable. What to do? Updating to LO 7.5 and TexMaths 0.51 changed nothing.

I see a bug report with the extension editor, TexMaths / Bugs / #146 BASIC error with LibreOffice 7.2.2.2
