One strange thing I noticed. I have an album that I ripped that was not
found in in cddb by the ripper and I didnt key in the tracks. It shows
up as Unknown Album/Unknown Artist. The collection scanner only picked
up the first unknown track.

Not sure if its related but there is also a strange album/track at the
tip of the Various Artists list.

Here's what mp3info thinks, looks like my ripper didnt even put in the
track number.

~/Music/mp3/Unknown Artist/Unknown Title$ mp3info Track1.mp3 
File: Track10.mp3
Title:                                  Track: 
Artist:  Unknown Artist
Album:   Unknown Album                  Year:  
Comment:                                Genre:  [255]

File: Track11.mp3
Title:                                  Track: 
Artist:  Unknown Artist
Album:   Unknown Album                  Year:  
Comment:                                Genre:  [255]

...

I'll try and re run the scanner and see if there is anything in the log
messages.
