Should be easy to fix, by the sound of it.

The artist you are browsing doesn't get displayed, only if the artist is 
different to the current artist.  Therefore, the current artists regular albums 
would be sorted to the top, as blank artist name would come first?

It should show a comma separated list of all artists, so sort by that.  I think 
this works well enough.  Would potentially be icing on the cake if the artists 
were listed in the order they were tagged on tracks, but they probably get 
displayed in contributor id order, which is random, or contributor name order.
