My folder structure is:

Ok..
 
I've had a go with 'José González' in the path and it seems to work..
But, when using the folders scanning option, Moose passes slimserver URLs instead of IDs..
I have had problems with slimserver and URLs in the past..
BTW, when Moose uses the DB scanning option, it uses ID's instead of URLs.
IDs do seem to be a much more reliable way of selecting stuff.
 
Now, Moose gets passed these IDs from the server when it's currently playing tracks, so I've just added some code
which attempts to temporarily remember the IDs of the currently playing album, and artist.
To make these IDs be remembered permanently, you can use the Library->File->Save library menu option.
 
So, if José's or anyone else's albums are still causing problems:
* Download the new build I've just put up (0.17)
* Fire up Moose and open the options window
* Make sure the SQLite file control is empty, then do a folder rescan
* Get the problem album playing via the remote or web-interface
* Check that the now playing details come up ok in Moose
* Open the library window
* Select File->Save Library
 
Then hopefully the next time you select the album, it should work.
 
If not, turn on the logging option and send me the details off-list.
It's a bit strange that it doesnt work normally.. Hmmm..
 
Note that folder rescanning will wipe any previously added IDs, so it's not really an ideal solution.
 
Oh, and also with 0.17 I've added some code to read album artwork
directly from the library folders.. It's a bit limited - you must have
folder.jpg, cover.jpg or thumb.jpg files amongst the mp3s..
