Indeed, I don't.  See below as for why.

Me too, and I have the latest taglib 1.11.1.  The culprit is either
taglib or emms-print-metadata. See what I get from commandline:

        > emms-print-metadata ~/music/Drive/2011.\ Drive/14.\ Cliff\ Martinez\ 
-\ Hammer.ogg
        info-artist=Cliff Martinez
        info-title=Hammer
        info-album=Drive
        info-tracknumber=14
        info-year=2011
        info-genre=Soundtrack
        info-note=
        info-playing-time=284
        
        > mediainfo ~/music/Drive/2011.\ Drive/14.\ Cliff\ Martinez\ -\

mediainfo returns "Drive" as Album/Performer, which is correct.  This is
missing from emms-print-metadata.
