Describe the bug
Jellyfin for Kodi doesn't properly sync music. All albums and artists appear, but no songs are showing. I have tried using both Kodi for Android (OnePlus 6T), Android TV (Chromecast with Google TV) and Debian (OSMC), both Kodi 18 and 19. My music is named and structured accordingly to the Jellyfin documentation. I also tried multiple ways of naming the files and folders, plus different MP3s and artists, but to no avail. The songs show up fine if I add them through the SMB share in Kodi, bypassing Jellyfin. Please see the Kodi log here for for information: https://paste.kodi.tv/ditiloqisa.kodi

System (please complete the following information):

OS: Debian Stretch
Server: Vero 4K (ARM)
Clients: Vero 4K (Debian), Android TV and Android 11
Kodi version: 18.9 and 19.1
Jellyfin Version: 10.7.6
Reverse Proxy: None
Networking: Local network, wired and wireless
Storage: Local server, shared through Jellyfin and SMB

To Reproduce

Setup a shared music library in Jellyfin server
Install Jellyfin for Kodi (clean install)
Setup your server settings in the client
Choose a single music library to sync
Wait for it for finish syncing
Check your Kodi music library - which should contain songs, but doesn't. Artists and albums are showing, but the albums are empty.

Expected behavior
I expected my music to show up in Kodi and being playable, using the correct metadata.
