WMA Song Title Problem

Am I the only one who has this issue?

Any song that's an WMA file synced on my phone, in Xbox Music, appears as "*.wma"

For example, say I have Chumbawamba's Tubthumping. If I have it as an MP3, it will show up as 'Tubthumping' the way it should--if it's a WMA file, however, it becomes Thubthumping.wma.

It's a pretty stupid problem, and only came with the Xbox Music update (like most of these issues). Does anyone have any idea why this would happen? Given that Microsoft has traditionally supported WMA files, I really don't care for having to turn all my WMA music into MP3 files--it's not a quality issue (the quality is fine for my ears), but an organizational one.

Correction--it's an M4A file doing this. And somehow, Xbox Music insists calling it a WMA.
