Thanks for reporting! I'll take a look.
If you (or anyone) want to take this over, please feel free — this shouldn't be too hard to fix.

On a closer look though, Koel actually doesn't suppor mutliple artists (either separated by a demiliter like in ID3 v2.3 or as individual fields like in v2.4). I deliberatedly went for this direction to keep things simple (inspired by Apple Music's behavior). This may change in the future, but right now your best bet is using separate Artist and Album Artist fields. Sorry for the inconvenience!
