A friend asked me to check this, as he was getting the same issue. I have been able to replicate it many times, and found a workaround.
Steps to recreate
Go to Characters > Character Builder and choose the Randomize option
Click the plus sign (+) next to Choose Race
In the drop down for Filter Race Source(s) I do not see all the options that I own:
For example, I own Volo's but I do not see the Tabaxi race as an option.
Workaround
Go to Characters > Character Builder and choose the Standard option
Click the browser back button to get back to the Character Builder start page (this appears to be necessary, as just reloading the character builder page does not resolve the issue).
Choose the Randomize option
Click the plus sign (+) next to Choose Race
In the drop down for Filter Race Source(s) I now see all the options that I own:
Follow up questions
I'm not sure if the Randomize option actually will still pick from the other sources, but my initial testing suggests that it may not. I have created about 10 characters randomly and none had options that were from the extended Sources list.
It does seem to randomly pick from all sources if you don't choose anything (I've had it give me Mordenkainen Tieflings, and some of my homebrew races as well), but I'd like to be able to choose them as well. Interesting workaround, though, and good to know until this bug is sorted.
