DAX studio XMLA to premium workspace, error

Anyone encountered this before? I'm able to connect to every workspace I've tried in my premium node with Dax studio, but one of the workspaces we get this message.

 

Establishing Connection

Error Connecting: These columns don't currently have unique values.

 

Then Dax studio just sits there and spins

maybe you can try to attach sql server profiler to the XMLA and monitor all events coming from your user to (maybe) identify the metadata query generating doubled objects and then fire an issue to DaxStudio team (if it's an issue...).

maybe comparing trace from both SSMS and DaxStudio? just guessing ..
