Music Library Compilations Issue Under 16.3.

Today I successfully updated to the latest 16.3 Firmware and Windows Desktop Controller.
I subsequently performed an “Update Music Library Now” from the 16.3 Windows Desktop Controller.
Now any Sonos Controller (including SonoPhone, SonoPad) show multiple entries for each compilation album when viewing Albums.
Just an example shown below...
 

Does anyone else have this issue?
Ross.

Hi @rosswells127 

I’m not sure why you posted this twice (please don’t), but we are aware of this issue and are now investigating. Thanks for flagging!

New firmware just out, updating now and will remove / add library to see if anything has been done 

It’s like getting a surprise present. Until you unwrap it you don’t know if you really want it. 😂

Might plug my speakers back in tonight and see what happens 😊

I'm not getting my hopes up!

 Just updated to firmware 16.3.3.  Compilations are still messed up.

Don’t bother. No change.

Even after reindexing? Ridiculous. Thanks for the heads up

It takes around 30 minutes to reindex my maximum sized library… guess norhing will be different. Anyone who knows what the firmware update is supposed to … do?

 New firmware did not fix the compilation album issue.  If there are 20 tracks in your compilation album you get 20 albums with no tracks in any of them.

Re indexed successful despite no indication that re indexing was taking place.

Still hundreds of albums from compilations. Not fixed!
