This works great for a list but the sort is not
happening when the image is created. I even tried
without including the path.  I'm beginning to think I
should append a number to the beginning of the
filename so it will create the image in the order I
want and get it over with.  Still, I would like to
figure out how to use the sort option.

BTW, after creating the image and running ls or ls -f
or ls -U on the mounted image results in the same
listing which is a sorted by filename list. 

Running ls -t (or more likely ls -tr) on the mounted
image gives me the order I want so the file dates are
kept correctly but it is still a sorted by filename
image that is created.

It's easy enough to make a playlist but that won't
work with my MP3 playing DVD drive.  If I was just
going to use the CD on the computer it really wouldn't
matter what order the files are written.
