Kobo Aura H20 collection using a custom column

I have recently purchased a Kobo Aura H20 to replace my Kindle PW1 which my mother-in-law is now using, and I am trying to set it up similar to the way I had it set up on my Kindle PW1, with the help of every one here in previous posts.

Basically I created a custom column:

Code:
Lookup Name: kobocollections
Column Heading: Kobo Collections
Column Type: Column built from other columns,behaves like tags
Template: {author_sort}{series:| - |}
I duplicated this from a "kindle collection" column I had with the except of using the column type: Column built from other columns,behaves like tags

I then in the Plugins "Kobo Touch" I entered in the tag section:

Code:
kobocollections,
The Results in the Device Viewer in Calibre shows:
Landsem, Stephanie - The Living Water


Which is exactly what I want. Except once I transfer the books over to the Kobo and view collections what it creates is:

Code:
Landsem                                                      3 books
Stephanie - Living Water                                     3 books
and within it has my books perfectly formatted the way I had them set up on my Kindle using Metadata plugboard configuration


Code:
Fomat: epub
Device: any device
Source Template: {title}{series:| - |}{series_index:0>2s| [|]}
Destination field: title
So what I would like to know is why it is creating 2 collections with the name and series split up and how can I get it to just create 1 collection "Landsem, Stephanie - The Living Water"

Thanks
