Yeah I have found that the issue is that the Wiim was connecting to a remote node in my mesh network. It was tricky to resolve, as the Wiim doesn't have an option to reset the Network, even following a reboot. So I had to turn the Mesh off and connect the Wiim to a different wifi network by

There is no difference in the tags. If I modify the filename (and only the filename) to eliminate the, for example, TS6-6, then the odd behavior stops, and all files are listed under one album. The behavior changes even though no tags are changed, only the filename. It's clear that the tags are
