Well, I think I now understand what it is doing.
1) Title sorts use the 'Title' attribute, not the title_sort.
2) The sony is doing article stripping.
3) The sony does not do subsorting (regards display by author)
Regarding display by author, I matched the screen shot of the by-author list with the db. The books are shown in the order they appear in the database, which is the order that they were originally sent. I might be able to do something about this, for example sorting the db itself by title, which should fix the 'by author' display. I will look at it.
Regarding the by title display: we now have a workaround, although not the prettiest one. Are you OK with using the underscores? Note that you will need to do the same thing if you ever have a series that begins with an article.
We do have another option. Calibre could create collections 'By Author' and 'By Title', using the added order stuff that seems to work. Would this be useful?
Time for some reflection, while watching the snow fall...
