OK... So it was my buddy Cory, but together we have narrowed the problem down. Essentally, all heck breaks loose when the
StrictAlbum1 = *
is used. At that point all of the album orders get scrambled. Remove this line, delete data files, reload and about 95% of the albums are correct. I must look at the tags in the remaining few and verify them. But 95% correct is a big step from 100% wrong!
It also seems that even if UseID3 = True, wincab seems to be using "tags" on a few files and "filenames" on most of the others. I verified this by changing a file name and watching the change take effect in wincab. Therefore I must insert a hyphen between the number and title and turn on smart crop. If I don't I see something like this:
01 01 Da first Song
02 02 Its number o two
03 03 Three is a a magic number
04 04 In the year 4040
and so on
But that sure beats seeing two sets of numbers and having them in a totally random order. Now that I have narrowed the trouble down a bit, maybe I play around some more and see if I can stumble on a more definitive problem definition. If you want me to give you a more detailed answer, you can PM me (or post here... it is your Topic!).

Looking at this tonight... I think I've located the problem, but I need to work through my thought process as I didn't document this section of code well.
