Some progress: it now plays in Google Play but not MMA.
With the feedback so far I did more digging and found
viewtopic.php?f=7&t=15124&p=450463&hili ... d3#p450463 which in turn linked to
https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=14949 ("MediaMonkey can fail to tag Artwork on occasion with FLAC files. Only seen on 4.1.21.") Turns out there was a MMW bug where FLAC files would be "damaged".
I checked with MP3Tag and sure enough, it reports both FLAC and ID3v2 tags for the files that are configured to synchronize to MMA.
However, after I used MP3Tag to "Remove tags" and then "Undo" to restore just the FLAC tags (as I've seen recommended in several places), the files now will play in Google Play Music but not MMA. Debug log LJ1AD6JU5V.
We're almost there--a little more help please?
edit: Clarifications:
1) I had MMW (4.1.23.1881) re-scan the edited FLAC files to ensure the MMW database was current.
2) MMA and Play Music can both play the FLAC if I manually copy the updated FLAC over to my phone and browse to it. However even when I removed it and re-synchronized it using MMW (4.1.23.1881), Play Music will still open it but MMA will not.)
Thanks,
