Matching filenames on device to Calibre DB

In order to conform with what appears to be the standard format for file names on the Novel, I changed the "Sending books to devices" template from "{author_sort}/{title} - {authors}" to "{author_sort}/{title}{series:| (|)}". However, now when I connect the device, Calibre doesn't recognize these files and instead creates new, duplicate DB entries for these books. Considering how configurable Calibre is, I'm sure there's a way to alter the reverse parsing, but where and how? Also, is there a way to merge the DB entries that refer to the same book?
