Would appreciate any help, please.

I have a new album, and it's being listed under Various Artists, despite
it not being a compilation: i.e. I have ALBUMARTIST set, and no COMP
tags.

To add confusion, I rip to FLAC+CUE, and I'm never terribly sure how LMS
merges the two tag sources, i.e. the text in the cue file, and the
Vorbis comments in the flac.

In this particular example, I have the following in the cue file,
overall:

TITLE "Deuces Wild"
PERFORMER "B.B. King"

and then per-track TITLE/PERFORMER. The per-track PERFORMER tags are all
different (it's a duets album), i.e. artist mismatches.

The flac file has the following Vorbis comment:

METADATA block #2
type: 4 (VORBIS_COMMENT)
is last: false
length: 125
vendor string: reference libFLAC 1.3.0 20130526
comments: 3
comment[0]: ENCODER=X Lossless Decoder 20131102
comment[1]: ALBUM=Deuces Wild
comment[2]: ALBUMARTIST=B.B. King


So, I have artist mismatches, but I also have ALBUMARTIST, and no COMP
tags. According to the wiki articles, that means this should not be seen
as Various Artists, I thought. But it is.


LMS clearly thinks so; in the web front-end, for the album itself, it
says:

Compilation: Yes

and per track, View Tags:

ALBUM: Deuces Wild
ALBUMARTIST: B.B. King


What am I missing please?


thanks much indeed.
