Ya, I get something similar . . . as you say "Something Went Wrong box with a Request failed with status 401"
. . . but it did let me still log in. Then when trying to log in again I get this javascript error, with a lengthy explanation of things gone wrong . . . but I hit OK, and I can still log in.
Something's just not right . . . maybe another BandLab Assistant update is coming, will that be update number 10 ?
