I have run into this same bug in cobra+viper and just tried out your patch. I'm still getting an empty string in the array, instead of an empty array when the flag was not specified.

([]string) (len=1 cap=1) {
 (string) ""
}

When I change my declaration of the flag from cmd.Flags().StringArrayVarP to cmd.Flags().StringSliceVarP, then I'm finally getting what I expected, an zero length slice/array.

([]string) {
}

I think fix this is close, because it is stripping out the extra square brackets, but it may need a bit more to remove the empty entry too.

This would be extremely helpful for k3d-io/k3d#506 to be fixed. I'd be happy to help, if needed.

I believe some tests may push it forward
