Follow-up Comment #1:

io-2.4.13 is "old", please try io-2.6.1.

Exactly what commands did you use to open the file? That's what I need to try
to reproduce this issue, not just output from the Octave terminal.

Furthermore, Octave + io package should be able to read .xlsx files w/o
external support files. UNO (LibreOffice) can be advantageous, sure, but for
simple reading you can also try with the OCT interface.

FYI, gauged by the number of bug / help mailing list reports the UNO interface
isn't used that often and it is a fragile interface at that. So in a way I'm
quite glad to see someone using it :-)
