Unable to initialize wallet, wrong seed version

Hey noders
Am having an issue tryna restore a backup seed after a successful build on debian. BTC node is happily syncing around 40%, I popped open the Lightning node app to do a wallet restore, entered my 24 seed phrase words and get and error…

Error

Unable to initialize wallet, wrong seed version

Should I be waiting for the node to sync before tryna do this?
I did not get the same error when creating a new wallet as a test, removed Lightning app, re-added it, and tried again to restore from my seed backup and got same error.

Advice greatly appreciate, happy stacking all =)

Bumping thread as I am also facing the same issue, I reinstalled the Bitcoin Node and Lightning app several times and have been unable to retrieve my funds since the 0.5 update
