Yes, this definitely looks strange.
Can you check what the "tracks" table shows for the track with Database
Query plugin ?

Code:
--------------------
    select * from tracks where url like '%Sisters%Floodland%Dominion%mother%'
--------------------


TrackStat will copy information from "tracks" table, so if the
information hasn't been scanned by standard SBS/LMS scanner it means
that tracks.musicbrainz_id is empty and then when TrackStat copy it the
track_statistics.musicbrainz_id will also be empty. If
track_statistics.musicbrainz_id is empty, it means that the TrackStat
restore won't be able to use musicbrainz id during restore.

The "View Tags" page shows what's in the file, it doesn't show what's in
the database, so even if it is in the file there might be some reason
why the standard SBS/LMS scanner isn't able to scan it, which is very
strange.

I'm not sure which tagging format that's used for m4a files, looking at
the SBS/LMS code I suspect it either expects a tag:
MusicBrainz Track Id
or
UFID
or possibly
MUSICBRAINZ_ID

FLAC files uses MUSICBRAINZ_TRACKID (or possibly MUSICBRAINZ_ID)

And none of these seems to exist in your file when using the "View Tags"
function. So assuming Jaikoz does the right thing, I suspect you might
have found a bug in SBS/LMS scanner related to m4a files.
