The default "behavior" is having shuffle enabled, you may not like it, but some people do.

People haven't replied so it's hard to know for sure, but it seems the real problem is that people have trouble seeing the play order setting.
It of course heavily depends on the layout, some layout use a menu (that include play order) some don't, the play order indicator may be in various places, which of course make it hard to answer some questions. But it's hard to avoid with layouts.
In the above screenshot, the play order indicator was hidden below the screen, it shouldn't happen now as it now tries to make the window fit in the screen.

About the "make it look like" layouts, I've said many times in the forum that I don't really recommend these layouts, as they tend to give you the worst of both worlds, as some features are not (yet) available in gmb, and some gmb-specific features are not used. Also some could behave much more like the other players already.
More generally the included layouts need lots of improvements. I plan to do that after I've added a couple of new layout-features that I've wanted to add for a long time.

Anyway, the bug is invalid: gmb can play tracks in album order when shuffle/random is not enabled.
But you are welcome to open a new bug that accurately describe your problem, preferably with screenshots as it makes the discussion much easier due to the various layouts.
