Bug Description
Starting eeschema as a standalone application causes it to load the symbol libraries twice when first adding a new part.
The first load (with progress bar) happens when pressing "a" to add a new part. Then the libraries are loaded again after the part is selected and the symbol browser window is closed.
Of note, there is an assert when adding a new part in standalone mode:

Do you have broken symbol library table entries? I'm not seeing the assertion so I'm wondering if that is the issue at play here. I just tested this in linux and the symbol libraries are not getting reloaded (I checked with a debugger) so perhaps broken symbol library table entries are causing the issue.
