Your setting for Album.sortTags has AlbumSort first and Album second. This will sort all albums that have an AlbumSort tag before all albums that don't have an AlbumSort tag. I presume you have recently started adding AlbumSort tags to your albums and this is why the recent albums are appearing first.

The simplest way to solve the problem is to change your settings to the following:

tagOptions: Album.sortTags={Album, Artist}
tagValue: Album.value.sort={AlbumSort}

This will use the AlbumSort tag as the sort value of the Album tag for albums that have an AlbumSort tag. For albums that don't have an AlbumSort tag, the sort value of the Album tag will be the same as the value of the Album tag.

OK tried this but got the MinimServer error:
Synology NAS MinimServer: incorrect tag 'Album' for option 'value.sort' in property 'tagValue'

Attached is a screen shot of my properties modified as you listed above.
