You have been subscribed to a public bug: Amarok2 does not handle changes in the collection correctly. For example, when a a file/directory is renamed, many files/albums in the collection are renamed, sometimes albums go to a different artist, sometimes the album's year becomes empty or wrong. Deleting .kde/share/config/amarokrc and .kde/share/apps/amarok and rescanning the whole collection restores correct view of the collection.
