I had a similar problem and it was nothing to do with playlists. I had
"Blue Nile" albums and then a phantom "Blue Nile (The)" album with one
track in it.

My problem was simple. At some point in ripping and encoding the album
(with one step EAC to FLAC) I realised I had done something wrong so I
hit cancel on the rip, corrected the problem, and started the
rip/encode again. This was the problem.

What happened was that when I aborted the first rip I was left with a
.WAV file for the first few seconds of the first track that was left in
the music directory alongside the final nicely ripped and tagged FLAC
files. When SlimServer does a scan then it of course picks up and
organises all the nicely tagged FLAC files but it also finds this stray
.WAV file in its scan and, since .WAV is untagged, it then guesses the
tags (rather well actually) from the file and directory names and hence
it ended up in my collection. Finding and deleting the stray .WAV file
and then doing a clear cache & rescan then gets rid of the phantom
entry.

I'm sure you could substitute "MP3" for "FLAC" in my description above
and it would still be valid. Maybe the above could be the source of
your problem.
