Do you use authentication?
Usually it helps to wait for 15-30s or so until it shows up.

I assume you do have a large library?
This happens while iPeng refreshes it's cache. While that's around 30s
for most libraries, for big ones it can get a bit longer.
Also, it helpf if you follow the usual use case of using one Menu (like
Albums or Artists) at a time, while I DO understand that's not what you
do when you first test something :-)
I tested it up to ~3.000 Albums and with that size it DOES get a bit
slow for one or two minutes.

The problem here is, that SqueezeCenter is unable to deliver a list of
Albums or Artists that is usable for the A-Z index, so I have to sort
the library and build an index myself. That's in the same thread right
now and can take several seconds on large libraries (at the end of the
downloading period).
iPeng caches the data, however, so you will only see this on the first
start or after a rescan.
I would LOVE to avoid to have this after rescans but SC can't give me
change information, so there is no way around this.

Wait for the 30s, after that it should work better. The Controller has
no influence on that.

One more thing: Do you have a slow server? Did you have a very long
current playlist (like with several 100 items)?
