Most likely:

You’re using MP4/M4V files and Local Media Assets is in the top slot of your Agent Lists. Move Local Media Assets to the bottom of your active agents by dragging and dropping it - under all Tabs of TV Shows and Movies.  
Settings/Agents

RED: where it was  
GREEN: where it needs to go

If ‘Refresh Metadata’ after that doesn’t fix it - The [Plex Dance](https://forums.plex.tv/t/the-plex-dance/197064) will:

> The purpose of this is to remove all cached metadata and xml data for an item that Plex usually keeps. This helps when you want to “start from scratch” for particular item move all files for the media item out of the directory your Library is looking at, so Plex will not “see” it anymore scan the library library (to detect changes) empty trash clean bundles (in menu next to server name, when accessed under ‘More’) double check naming schema and move files back scan the library Support articl…

Epilogue:  
LMA can read and react (badly) to embedded Title Fields - only in MP4/M4V files - preferring the Title Field over The File Name… insane, right? Well, demote LMA’s priority by dragging it out of the top slot and all is well.
