No album art for local library queue on Android app
Album art is working for my local NAS library when I'm selecting albums, and shows in the summary page when I'm playing a track. But when I look at the queue there's no album art. That's not a big deal when just playing an Album but it's a pain when building a multi-album queue or playlist.
This works on the iOS app, and I thought it was working recently in Android. But not any more. Had something changed? I don't think anything has changed in my set up. I have re-added the music library, but that doesn't help.

I'm seeing the same thing, Android app version 80.30.31. The release notes mention queue changes so maybe they broke this.
Just so you know you’re not alone… the queue used to show artwork on andriod. After the recent app update to 80.30.31, it no longer does. 2 steps forward, 1 step back.
Can you tell me, if you use the current andriod app to select and play an album, what show up on the second line under the album art on the Now Playing screen?
Mine is the same as RLB's, what are you seeing?
It’s supposed to show Artist - Album. I took these a couple months ago. It looks the same now, except for the group device count number. One is an album added on andriod. The other is the same album added on iOS.
Switched to a different album, with more complete tags and I'm seeing that glitch too, doubled artist, no album.
I submitted this to Sonos a few months ago. They said they weren’t able to reproduce it. After showing them the screenshots, they promised to get back to me. That never happened.
Thanks for all the replies! On the issue about displaying album names, I'm seeing Artist - Album name in Android.
What does my Android app (see profile) show in these cases?
Ditto on the album art no longer showing in the queue. This is a regression in the latest release. The release did fix the bug where when displaying the queue, the first track was highlighted rather than the currently playing track.
What does my Android app (see profile) show in these cases?
That makes the problem even more confusing. Using your app to play an album, shows correctly in your app and the iOS app. But the sonos android app shows just artist on the second line. If I play an album with the sonos android app, the sonos android and iOS app show artist - artist, but your app (and SonoPhone) has artist & album correct.
When testing this, you need to have an empty queue or always pick a different album than what’s currently in the queue.

Did you add that to the queue using the android app? The only time my android app shows that correctly (artist - album) is if I add to the queue using iOS or a desktop controller.
