Hi Ben,

I think you are hitting this bug.  Browse pages are currently not taking 
into account the *sort* configuration 
: https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/issues/8651

So, while those browse settings should work overall, the sort option 
specifically is not working as expected.  There are some (early) PRs for 
fixing this behavior, but they are still under review.
