If a local file is FLAC, the artist name repeats with a semicolon

If a local file is FLAC, the artist name repeats with a semicolon

Step 1 - In settings, "add a source" to include the FLAC files (mine are from bandcamp purchases)
Step 2 - Go to "your library" and check the added FLAC files. The artist name appears twice or more.

- I checked the local FLAC files & the artist name only appears once each in the fields "contributing artists" and "album artist". I tried updating the album artist field to be empty but still the same

This is making scrobbles inaccurate. Please take a look.
