WMP11: Sort by artist "grouping" bug?

First of all I'd like to thank Tim for an excellent plugin.  It makes flac integration seamless, just like it claims to.

This may have nothing to do with the tag plugin but I hadn't noticed it before applying the plugin.  When I sort by album, WMP11 groups the albums - all the A's, B's etc., separated by a thick line. But when sorting by artist, I cannot consistently get WMP11 to display the artists in groups.  Sometimes it will group them and sometimes it won't.  At one point, I could get this to work by clicking on the "Artist" column heading, but then later, in the same WMP11 session, it quit working and for the life of me I can't get it to work again.  Note that this is only happening with the icon and tile views.  The details view does show the artists in groups.

With the library view set to "Artist", and when viewing by icon, clicking on the other column headers (count, length or rating) displays the results in a group.  But not artist.

If I'm just doing something stupid in WMP11, I'd appreciate any suggestions.

Running XP, SP2.

Thanks.

Bruce

No problems on this end. WMP11 on Vista SP2 x64, no extra tagging plugins.
