OS:                Linux

I have already reported this bug here:https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=199483


Playlist layout Artist tag displays Album artist tag (which is wrong behaviour).

I have tested the same file (the one from the attachment) in plenty of other
media players: 

Bangarang,
Clementine,
Kaffeine,
SMPlayer,
Juk,
Dragon player,
Xine,
VLC,
Audacious,
Totem,
Exaile 

and all of them are showing this tag correctly. They are showing Artist tag and
not Album artist tag like Amarok.

Also all ID tag viewers/editors (Kid3, EasyTag, Mediainfo, Entagged) correctly
show actual Artist under Artist tag and not Various artist from the Album
Artist tag.

For better understanding of this issue, please see my attachment of the playlist layout. All relevant info is marked with red square.



Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
Open example file in any ID tag editor or any other music player (see my list). You will see for Artist name actual artist name and NOT Album Artist name.

Actual Results:  
Artist | Various Artists
Album Artist | Various Artists

Expected Results:  
Artist | Pearl Jam
Album Artist | Various Artists
