When I copy books via the Wireless connection this works perfectly.
Yesterday I added a few books to calibre and then added them to CC. A few hours later, I added one more book and copied it via the cloud connection. Instead of being first on the "No grouping" list, it showed up after the books that I had added earlier. This morning, I synced again without changing anything in Calibre and it moved to the correct spot (the top of the list).
Is it possible that when you do a cloud transfer, you are picking up the correct date, but using a time of "00:00"? Could it be a time zone thing? I have sent you a log.

There is indeed a problem. When dates are sent via the wireless device or content server, calibre converts them to ISO-format strings. The dates in metadata.db are in a format very close to but not the same as ISO. Because of this difference the sorting behaves as you describe.
Fix is in the next beta that should come out today.
