Anyway after deleting the file I left a completed DB rebuild running
when I left for work this morning and lo and behold the album artwork
has appeared on the touch. Looks like the problem was that the file was
marked system.

That's quite an old album so was probably ripped with WMP9. Newer
albums don't seem to have that file. Anyway I've learnt something
new:An icon of a CD in its case seems to mean 'cannot read artwork
file' as opposed to a film stock with notes on it which means 'don't
have any artwork'.

Thanks for your help guys - hopefully I can continue to add missing art
without any more oddities.
