Hello all.
I've got that little problem (it was also described here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/amarok/+bug/319494):

Amarok sometimes doesn't understand, that songs belong to the same album. 
Sometimes it draws different albums even for the CD of a single artist, but more commonly it happens for the various artist's albums.

Marking such and album as Various Artists doesn't help.

I thought that such a situation may change if I change tags in Amarok (instead of EasyTag), but it doesn't help, so I have 20 albums under the same title in my collection.

Amarok 1.3 gave me a possibility to drag and drop songs from one album to another, but it doesn't work for Amarok 2.

Is there any way to solve that problem?
