I am experiencing the reversion from Last_name, First_name to First_name Last_name after loading books onto the reader using Calibre 0.8.22.

In the Sony device plugin, I have checked the option to use author_sort in the author field. I have selected the option to have Calibre automatically manage metadata.

When I plug the device into the computer, the metadata is uploaded to the device. When I eject it and unplug it, initially the books are all listed with the author's name in Last_name, First_name order. Then after a few seconds, the screen refreshes and they are listed with the author's name in First_name Last_name format. It seems like the reader itself is parsing the author field and "correcting" the format so that they all have the author's first name first.

Is anyone else seeing this behavior? Has anyone found a fix?
