Generally, it's safer to read the server logs (less places where the
encoding can be broken (browser etc.), and more representative of what
LMS actually processes). You can increase the logging verbosity in the
server settings.

Also: There's a difference between the configured values (e.g. path to
music files), and the path / file names themselves (the latter being
handled URL-encoded internally, so no UTF-8 required)

No, it does (should?) display UTF-8

It will take the default locale from the environment it's  started from
(unless you use the --charset option)

One more thing you can try: Use  /home/matthias/Musik/ as the base to
scan from.
If you want to exclude folders from the scan, see 'this post'
