soundtrack category
i didn't test every title, but i was allowed to buy stellaris and cuphead soundtrack.
soundtrack now says
This is additional content for XXXXXX, but does not include the base game.
instead of
This content requires the base game XXXXXX on Steam in order to play.

Yeah, unfortunately it isn't automatic and requires the devs/publishers to manually change them over.
This will probably unfortunately mean that some might never get changed over do to laziness/apathy on their part. And I doubt any games with soundtracks which are no longer sold will ever get updated with this change.

Most, if not all types of DLC for a game that is 'Profile Features Limited' won't get any entries because the base game can't be detected as being owned through the Steam API. However with the recent change to soundtracks on Steam it might be an idea to recode how this works on Steamgifts. The site might have to check the soundtrack page for each soundtrack giveaway to see if it is available as a standalone purchase and then allow entries. Not sure if standalone soundtracks are detected by the API or not. But I do know that the developer for Knightin'+ (game is 'Profile Features Limited') was unable to get entries for the soundtrack even though it was setup as not requiring the base game. Whether that was still because of the limited features or not I am unsure.
Drop a comment here if you know if ownership of the stanalone soundtracks are detectable through the API for games that don't have 'Profile Features Limited'. (I don't know much about how these things all work.)
