Just fixed it. I was passing the $id to the action, but I hadn't added the hidden id fields to the form, so that each element knew what to update.
So the two things I had to add were: - hidden id field for the Album - hidden id field for each track that was already part of the Album (i.e. in my foreach) This also allows you to add new tracks to existing albums without it creating a new album. I can give some more details if needed.
