The calibre action for "sort by" (see attached chain) tends to be a bit flaky for doing this; if it's the current sort, the menu entries change and break validation, and there's no way to define ascending/descending.
This will need a new action. I already have a sort dialog implemented in the advanced mode of the Find Duplicates plugin, will port it to Action Chains when I have the time to do the next release.
