Just edit the Device Interface plugin for the Sony. While the device is connected to calibre, click the dropdown under the Device Icon, and select to customize the device. You will get the popup according to the screenshot I attached. Take note of the bit in red -- clear that field, and it should no longer create collections.

I cheated to get this popup, as I don't have a Sony -- I went to Preferences ==> Advanced => Plugins. The Sony plugin is under Device Interface plugins ==> "Sony PRST1 and newer Device Interface", or "Sony Device Interface" for devices older than the PRST1. Or just search "sony" in the plugin search bar.
