I have a similar layout and a similar problem.
Eventually I worked around it by making a parallel directory hierarchy
with A-D etc directories containing symlinks back to the artists in the
main tree.
It works perfectly well, takes almost no disk space, and requires just a
little maintenance. Still, if you want to make a code fix I'd be
interested!
Cheers,
Martin.
