This is a third device?

In any event, sony readers ignore the file name when determining metadata, instead using what is written in the device database. You can tell calibre to put author_sort into the database instead of author in the Sony plugin preferences. Connect your device, click on the down-arrow on the device icon, choose Configure this device, and check "Use author-sort for author".
