The above will not work regardless of the method used to display duplicates (whether it is showing one group at a time, or all at once). This is because the plugin applies its own sort filters and refresh them between results.

This means that if all duplicates are shown at once, sorting by date will mess up the groups because it overrides the plugin mechanism for showing them next to each other. On the other hand, if the plugin is set to show one group at a time, each time you move to the next group, the plugin will override whatever sort filter you applied in the previous group.
