Thanks for your questions!

The rules for Dzonkha are very slightly outdated, the most up to date collation
rules are:

https://github.com/unicode-org/cldr/blob/main/common/collation/bo.xml

But the differences are only in very niche cases, not on the very simple
example I gave.

> Is there some general sorting rule for strings with subjoined letters?

In Tibetan there is an idea of root letter, which is the primary letter on
which to sort. In the example of སྐ, the main letter is ཀ, and the superscript
letter is ས. སྐ is thus organized with ཀ, not ས.
