 Steps to reproduce in MMA:
1. Add number of tracks in MM5 for sync that have Album, Artist and/or Album Artists empty and Sync to MMA (tracks do not have AA)
2. If Album artist is unknown add Album Information in MMA
3. Play the track -> Let MMA find AA for that Album
4. all AA for Unknown artist have same AA

Steps To reproduce during Sync:
1. Add number of tracks in MM5 for sync that have Album, Artist and/or Album Artists empty and Sync to MMA (tracks do not have AA)
2. If Album artist is unknown add Album Information in MMA
3. Add track with same Artist and/or Album Artists empty that have Album art and set it as First track in Album
4. Sync with MMA
5. all AA for Unknown artist have same AA

NOTE: It happens in 3/20 Syncs (I experimented with different Albums, tracks and different empty metadata) it is inconclusive what triggers eg. what tells GMS that track is first on that album (even unknown) and assign available AA

Only Way I have found to lower that chance in 1/20 is to make sync mask Contain Unique value for folder name and that folders/sub folders only contain 1 track and taht Albumart.jpg is not saved to taht folder, but AA is read from File tags.
