How are you starting playback - by using the OK or PLAY button. The OK button is supposed to just play the selected track and stop. The PLAY button is supposed to play all tracks. Something easy to try.I say "supposed to" because in my case with the Media Library ON and FOLDER view selected the OK and PLAY buttons both do the same thing - they play everything automatically. This is a different behavior than you have described. In other parts of the interface; for instance if you search for files; the OK button only plays the selected track and the PLAY button plays everything!I've had my HUB since March and just as I think I've got it figured out, I find another "undocumented feature"I have managed to find work arounds for most of these annoyances, with the help of this forum. It would be nice if eveything worked as expected - but that wouldn't be as much fun
Alrighty then. I have been using the OK button to select. Just seemed natural to do so, at least to me. Never even thought to use the Play Button above. I will certainly try that tonight. I looked thru the manual but didn't see any specific mention of the differentiation between the OK and the Play. But, as you say, very easy to try. However, if the OK button is supposed to ONLY play the one file, then it's not working correctly on subsequent clicks.
I've had my HUB for only several days now and it seems like I'm learning something new on it each time I mess with it. These forums are a great help, especially during the learning process.
Since you have a lot more experience on it, I'd like to ask one more question about the remote control. I have a Netflix account so I decided to see how the HUB worked with it. When I first clicked on it, it very logically asked if I had an account and of course I clicked Yes. It then asked for the two bits of info; my email address and password. However, I could not figure out how to get alpha characters from the remote. I tried every other key as a 'shift' key. The manual only states that if you tap the number keys repeatedly, it will cycle thru the alphas. I'm sure it's me but I'll be a rat's butt if I could figure it out. I solved the problem easily by plugging in a USB keyboard - that worked perfectly. But I'd really like to know how to get the alphas to work on the remote. Thanks!!
You may have found yet another variation on the OK vs PLAY and playback sequence "feature" 
On the onscreen keyboard - If you press the large "ABC" on the left side above the Cancel button you will get CAPS. If you press the "@#&" on the right hand side above the .com you will get numbers and symbols. Hope that is what you were looking for.

In Music view = FLAC files in decending order
In Folder view = FLAC files in ascending order
So Folder view is the workaround until WD find a solution to fix the bug with the Music view.
@RenderBender
I have found out that if you navigate to the folder containing the album you want to play and then push the Play button it should play the whole album. (Don´t push the OK button to enter the folder, just push Play)
Yes those are two workarounds to the bug. It would be nice if WD got the HUB to play the files back correctly in the first place without the workarounds though
