The "Artists", "Genres", "Albums" menus is created automatically by the
TrackStat plugin, it sounds like these are working correctly. They are
grouped into different groups in a tree like hierarchy and the play
icons are only available on the leaves. If you don't like to see these
automatically created playlists, you can hide them using the
"Enable/Disable playlists" link in the Dynamic Playlist web interface.

playlist not to work correctly.

To get more information I would suggest that you do as follows:
1. Goto "Server Settings/Plugins" in the SlimServer web interface and
find the "SQL Playlist" section. In the bottom of this section there is
a flag related to debugging messages, activate this.
2. After you have activated the debugging messages, goto the playlist
again and hit play.
3. When the playlist fails open up a web browser and goto:
http://localhost:9000/log.txt
Look if you see any errors in the log, if you can't see anything wrong,
post the log here and I will try to see if anything looks strange.

You can also post what parameters you have changed, marked, unmarked in
the playlist you created. As a guide you should only change a the
default values if you want to limit the playlist contents based on that
value. So if you just create a new playlist without changing any options
you usually get a playlist that contains the whole library. If you
select a genre in the "Included genres" parameter the playlist will be
limited to tracks that belong to that specific genre. If you select a
genre in the "Excluded genres" parameter, the playlist will be limited
to all tracks besides those that contain the genre you checked.
