If you only have one album listed under a genre and that album is a
"various artists" album it is impossible to play or see any information
about the album using the remote.

To recreate. Choose any various artists album you have and tag it (i.e.
all tracks) as one genre that no other albums in your collection use.
Use the remote to browse to that genre. Attempt to play the album or
view any information about it.

This is not a new bug. Sometime ago whilst using the SlimServer web
interafce I noticed that I didn't think the behaviour was very good
when a genre contained just a various artists album.
i.e. browse to 
Home / Genres / Chamber Music      
the return is:
0 albums with 0 songs by 0 artists.
Various Artists         Play Add to playlist

An album, whether containing various artists or not, is still an album
with a defined number of tracks and artists, so the listing of 0 albums
with 0 songs by 0 artists is incorrect.

However, from the web interface it is possible to at least view info
and play the album. Using the remote it is not. If someone can verify
this I'll file a bug.
