Yep, that fixed it, thanks!
Still has the artefacts at the start where songs which build up slowly have the initial really quiet few seconds played as loud as the loud parts of the track, like a compressor would do. Once it's got to the loud parts of the song and you restart the track it plays those parts at a more correct relative volume. Is there some "better" way of handling this? If doing a quick peak detection before the first track plays (other tracks are likely to be around the same max volume, on average?) isn't on, then perhaps not fully normalizing the audio in the first few seconds...assume that a lot of tracks fade in or build up from the start, and tracks which start off a full volume aren't going to suffer because they're already loud? This isn't a huge problem, obviously, but if I can work around the problem by quickly dragging the progress bar around a few tracks of that album before returning to the start of the first track then presumably moOde could do that automatically too?
