That's supposed to work this way due to limited API of Android's media store. I have an idea how to fix it, but this 'fix' would probably have a drawback - during the initial preparation of genres, there would no new tracks appear in MMA UI (e.g. in Albums, Artists, ... views). Which seems to make the current solution preferable.

Anyway the idea: create a helper DB table MSGenreMedias having columns MSMedia, Genre. We are able to pre-fill this table on the beginning of our scan. Then, using a trigger, we could auto-fill genre for each newly added track to DB.

If I had to choose, I'd stick with the current situation. Which implies there's nothing to be done.
