I don't have the plugboard so for most books my L2 only shows the first author shown in Calibre, and I'm fine with that.
I am having trouble making sense of this. I looked at the driver code and if the "Update metadata on device" is set then it (calibre) will update the authors on every connect, using the authors in calibre. The driver changes the L2 database.

Do you have "Update metadata on device" set?
