What is the purpose of the "Author Sort" field?
I think it works that way in calibre itself. The Sony uses the authors name in the LRF metadata to do its sort.

I think to change the author name in the LRF you would have to reconvert it from the source format. Not even sure this is possible. I assume it puts the author name into the metadata and not author sort name.
