indeed.

the basic rule of thumb is that any artist / tpe1 mismatch will result
in the album being a comp to SBS, unless it also has AA tags which SBS
takes to mean it isn't a comp.

in addition you can add explicit comp tags that basically over-ride
anything else.

first, see this bug:

second, as mentioned, if you use TPE2 for AA tags, make sure SBS is
interpreting them that way at scan time, and do a full clear and
rescan.
