And for completeness, the Kobo devices only looks at the title. The title sort appears to be a calibre specific attribute (I'd never looked before). Sorting of titles, as DNSB said, is done using "library order".

Similarly, only the author is used. And only the first dc:creator tag found in the OPF is used. The author is expected to be "FN LN" or "FN1 LN1, FN2 LN2" for multiple authors. Series are sorted in library order.
