Hrrm?  Vorbis tags (which is what FLAC should use) have no practical
limit on the length of fields.  (There is a limit, but it is
pointlessly large: if you can't fit the tracknumber into just under
2Gbytes, there is a problem...)

The tag in Vorbis-ese, by the way, is not TRACK... it is TRACKNUMBER.

I don't know what program your images are.... it shows "Track #" as the
column name... Is that just how it is displaying it?  What is the actual
tagname?

There is either something wrong with your tags, or something wrong with
slimserver in reading them.  There is something different between the
way this album is tagged and the way others are.

Are you sure names of the tags are correct.  Vorbis comments let you
make up any sort of tag you want.  You can have a tag named
"Tracksonthisdisk" if you want, but Slimserver won't do a thing with
it... I don't use Tag&Rename, so I can't tell if the columns are labels
or if they are the name of the tags....

If the name of the tag is "DISC #", then, no, that won't work.  Nor
will "TRACK #" work.

They should be "DISC" and "TRACKNUMBER"
