Yeah, the server does something odd with sort strings. For some unknown
reason it strips all non-alphanumeric characters from the string.
There's a bug on file for it:

So you can't push items to the top or bottom of the list using ___SORT
fields with punctuation characters. But you can still us alphanumeric
characters to do the same thing. Since the sort fields are never seen,
it makes no difference.

For ALBUMSORT you might try prefixing a field and assigning numbers
such as shown below. For it to work, It's important to add this to the
ALBUMSORT field of every album in the library.

0 - non-VA, non-soundtrack
1 - VA
2 - soundtrack

0 Marx Harpo 1957 Harpo In Hi-Fi and Harpo At Work

This should work for browsing by album. If that album is a soundtrack
by a single artist, then you'll have to decide where you want it sorted
in the list.
