Unable to "show album" on app via "Now playing"

Explanation:
Play a song - Open up the “Now playing” screen by clicking at the bottom of the screen where you can see your song playing - Open up playlist view, bottom right of your screen - When your song is finished caching, click on the three dots/pin needle and click “Show album”. This sends me to the playlist folder instead of the album.

I tried this but it sent me to the album correctly. I wonder if it relates to some of the fixes we've implemented recently regarding how albums are identified in the app. Can you find an album this still occurs with and let me know so I can try to replicate?
I have recorded a video and will send it to you via email.
Oh, ok. The steps were:
Expected: the album for the track is shown.
Actual: the playlist is shown.
What's happening is that the app requests the song's "parent". If tag browsing is disabled then that is defined to be the playlist. If it's enabled, it explicitly uses the album instead. I tried that and it does show the album when "Browse by tag" is enabled under Settings -> Accounts. So that's a workaround for now.
I think really we should override this behaviour and always show the album, but it might be that this code is being used in multiple places and it does work there. So it needs a bit more investigation.
Or, we should show "Show playlist" (sometimes it's difficult to distinguish between play queue and playlist).
Can confirm sorting by tags is a workaround. Though, I can't play my folder/playlist no more.
Hmmm... can't play, or can't see?
If I enable Browse by tags and use the Browser to view your storage, I now see artists, not folders (which makes some sort of sense, although I thought the intention of the Browser was always to browse files).
Just wanted to make sure our view was consistent.
I always play by folders. Folders are playlists for me. When I sort by tags and can't see my browser, I can't play my playlist. I hope this makes sense.
Ok. Ultimately, "show album" should do what it says.
