I have two issues importing a two-disc release:

1. If told to import from `./`, beets finds only files in `./CD1` but not in `./CD2`. The songs from `./CD2` are reported as missing tracks.

2. Then beets goes on with importing without waiting for user input:

```auto
  Tagging:
      Various Artists - […]
  URL:
      https://musicbrainz.org/release/[…]
  (Similarity: 71.1%) (missing tracks) (2xCD, 2004, DE, Sony Music Media)
  CD 1
  Missing tracks (19/38 - 50.0%):
   ! […]
  Apply, More candidates, Skip, Use as-is, as Tracks, Group albums,
  Enter search, enter Id, aBort? Looking up: 

```

There’s a brief pause between **`aBort`** `?` and `Looking up:` but the program doesn’t wait for my choice.

What am I doing wrong? Couldn’t find anything in the documentation.

Figured out myself: the target directory contained a third directory with album artwork that confused the auto-tagger.
