I've installed fresh 2.38 and found the problem. Let's do the steps:
menu / tag sources/ freedb / determine from selected files / button "utils" / compilation
then I discovered there pretyped default pattern (in a new style): "%artist% - %title%", but it ain't work. Although help (F1) tells about old "%i" and "%t".

I've changed it to %artist% and %title% with the latest [Development Build](http://developer.mp3tag.de).
Thanks for reporting!
Kind regards,
