I missed this post by Kovid. No more mystery it performed as expected.

When you try to use both Calibre and Sony software to manage books on your device your asking for trouble.

You were obviously new to calibre because in any recent previous version as soon as you transferred any books via Calibre you would have noticed a bunch of collections added to your reader created from tags.

Kovid did document this new feature and linked to it in the first post of this thread.

Incompatible changes
  • all the SONY drivers have been combined into a single driver, so if you previously customized a SONY driver, you will have to redo the customization.
    Also note that, calibre turns tags into collections, so it will create new collections for existing books on your reader, if they have tags but don't already have collections on the device.
    You can turn off this behavior by going to Preferences-> Plugins-> Device Interface plugins and customizing the SONY plugin.
