I think disc/track numbers may be the issue, especially since it appears that the tracks for all albums are in a single, flat folder. Until recently, having albums in a flat folder, rather than an `artist/album/tracks` structure, caused major problems for Plex. A recent update fixed that, but only if embedded tags are in really good order.

I’d try adding disc/track numbers to one album that’s currently split up, rescan the library, and see what happens. Might have to [Plex Dance](https://forums.plex.tv/t/the-plex-dance/197064).

I’m guessing Plex won’t understand ‘A1’ ‘B1’ track numbers. Try just 1 through 10 (if there are 5 ‘A’ and 5 ‘B’ tracks) as an experiment.
