Connecting using MongoDB Compass

Question

I'm trying to see the contents of a collection using MongoDB Compass. I have username/password authentication set up. I can log in successfully but can't see any documents in the collection. Instead, I see the error:

An error occurred while loading navigation: command hostInfo requires authentication.

Here are the list of roles the user has:

"roles": [{
    "role": "readWrite",
    "db": "moviesDB"
  },
  {
    "role": "dbAdmin",
    "db": "moviesDB"
  },
  {
    "role": "dbOwner",
    "db": "moviesDB"
  },
  {
    "role": "clusterMonitor",
    "db": "admin"
  },
  {
    "role": "dbAdmin",
    "db": "moviesDB"
  }
]

I can successfully query the collection using mongo shell and node.js driver but not through Compass. If someone could tell me what I'm doing wrong I'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance!

Kill the mongodb compass processes running, and re-launch compass.
