I have compilation albums with "Various Artists" as the Album Artist and thus I consciously sort by Artist so when I'm looking for a song by A, I also don't have to check under V.
In 4.1.8.1751, Art with Details seems to be sorting by Album Artist despite my Artist sort choice. http://i.imgur.com/QhCXa2G.png
Is this intended behavior or did I do something wrong?

Re: Artist Sorting in Art with Details
I guess this may have been a design choice so that Albums aren't split up.

wrong alphabet artist sorting
Hi,
When I click in "music" to the to the top bar on "artist" to sort my complete music collection in alphabetic order of all artist, following happens:
normal albums: a - c
than follow all compilations (so named in album artist) from a - z
than rest of standard albums: d - z
That means MMW is sorting the "album artist" instead of "artist"!?
Why?
NOTE:
When opinion is "Albumcover" and "Albumcover and Details", sorting is wrong.
At "Details" and "Album-Cover-Browser and Details" the sorting is correct, does not matter what is tagged under "Album Interpret".
This problem occured with each MMW version I had, does not matter if official or beta. Now i use 4.1.9.1754.
Also with Windows 7 and now with Windows 10.
