selecting Artist populates Queue incorrectly - jeff.perkins - 12-07-2019

If I'm in Library view on Artists tab, and I select an Artist that is on a compilation album, then All songs by All artists from the compilation album are placed in the Queue. This seems wrong - I would expect that only songs from the Artist that I selected would be placed in the Queue.
For example, if I have 1 Donovan Frankenreiter song in my Library, on an album called Mix Album 008, which has 3 other songs by different artists, and I go to the Library\Artists and click on the 3 dots at right of Donovan Frankenreiter and select Add To Queue, I should just get the 1 Frankenreiter song in my queue. But I end up getting 4 songs in my queue (all 4 songs from Mix Album 008, including Frankenreiter plus the other 3 artists).
Can this be fixed?
Or am I doing something wrong (or is there a workaround)?
Thanks

It's not a filter. If you select Artist, you see the albums where that artist is on. Selecting the album won't filter out tracks from other artists.

Strange. So if I just want to play songs by "Donovan Frankenreiter", whether they are on compilation albums or not - how do I do that (I have alot of artists on compilation albums - and frequently I just want to listen to only "Michael Jackson" or "Merle Haggard". Rarely do I listen a a single album anymore).
Being able to listen to a selected artist seems like a very common feature in all other music players.
Is there anyway to play "All songs for a single Artist" in USB Player Pro?
