Yes, I did. In fact I deleted everything and then synced a number of tracks from iTunes. But iTunes wouldn't sync the artwork, so I deleted everything again before trying [1486].
I can report some more on syncing with [1486]. I still occasionally get a track that doesn't sync first time - even though other tracks from the same album sync fine at the same time. In fact, it seems the more tracks I am syncing, the less likely I am to have a track that fails.
And for what reason I don't know, the problem with type (Classical Music) not properly syncing seems to have disappeared.
And, when I detached the iPod and re-connected it, MM found the playlists on the iPod. It seems it won't find any that are created while it is attached, but when it is forced to scan it again, it finds them. Though it actually lists one of the playlists twice??
And even after re-scanning it doesn't find the artwork on the iPod, though it transfers it just fine.
All in all, I'd say for me [1486] is getting pretty close. It's annoying to have to sync some tracks several times, but for now I am able to get what I want on an iPod that has IOS 5.1 on it.
ADDED: I forget to mention that the tracks that I was syncing were a mix of just copying (from MP3 files) and converting (from FLAC files). The type of source file did not seem to have any effect on whether there was a problem with any of the tracks.
