I have added 3 albums to my library and run the update. The albums do not appear in Recently Added Albums or when I search the artists name. They do appear when I use Files option and I can play the music.
How do I get Kod1 21 to recognize new albums added to the library.

In addition when played the album does not appear in the Recently Played list either

Assuming you're relying entirely on internet resources for art and metadata... try this:
1) remove your music media source(s) from Settings>Media>Library>Manage Sources>Music...
2) goto Settings>Media>Music and enable the following options:
Fetch additional information during updates
Prefer online information
Prefer online album art
3) add your music source(s)

This strat has always resulted in the most complete scrapes for me so there's more to it than just a rebuild. In theory, those settings should have no impact on my music lib because I have zero local art or info files. Weird but it works so I've been doing this since helix. Anyway, happy to hear you're back in business.
Edit: To be clear, steps 1 & 3 are only necessary if step 2 was not preformed prior to adding music sources. Enabling these settings after the fact does nothing for the update process.
