I think the problem is related to the way iTunes deals with album art. Rather than embedding the art into the mp3 files, it stores a database on your computer, and on your iPod, and then creates a reference file, linking albums to art.

It might be possible for you to get around this by using some third party software to embed the art into the mp3 files themselves. You could do this manually through iTunes (using the right-click -> info method), but it would probably take a really long time.

I hope songbird fixes this soon, as this, and also the grouping of compilations, is one of the few things keeping me from making a full transition.

Good luck :)
