The tag is there correctly. The problem is that MythMusic was never  
programmed to take the the disc number into account when playing back  
tracks. You can choose to:
a. Work around it by renaming the album after you grabbed the album art
b. ignore the lack of this feature
c. submit a patch to implement this feature
d. wait for it to bother someone else enough to submit a patch to  
implement the feature
