When starting spyder, I can never get the IPython console to connect to a 
kernel initially, I always get the same error message:

An error ocurred while starting the kernel
Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: can't initialize sys standard streams
OSError: [Errno 9] Bad file descriptor

I've ensured that spyder is up to date by running 
sudo pip install -U spyder

Trying to restart the kernel does not help.

However, I can start a kernel by running
jupyter notebook
from the terminal and copying the kernel address and selecting 'connect to 
an existing kernel' from the drop down in the console menu and entering 
that kernel, and it works fine. But I would like to avoid doing this. Any 
ideas? I confess I don't fully understand the error it is presenting in the 
console window.
