Your problem is caused by a bug in Custom Scan, currently it seems like
the sort tags has also to be added to the "Tags to scan" field to make
it work. So if you add COMPOSERSORT to the "Tags to scan" field it
should work correctly.

I'll correct it in the next Custom Scan release so this isn't
necessary.

Any help that makes it possible to test Custom Scan and/or Custom
Browse is greatly appreciated. There is two parts in this:

1. 
Have a set of music files with various tagging and file formats. It
could be really small files to save storage space as we don't need to
be able to play them, we only want to test the scanning and browsing.
Also, it obviously can't be audio data under copyright as that wouldn't
be possible to publish without violating the copyright.

2. 
Have a script or something similar that can be executed after the
scanning to verify the contents of the database or even better the
contents of the browse menus in Custom Browse. I suspect it easier test
the database contents, so it might be a good idea to start with that.

Currently I have a set of music files which I've collected from various
users but I don't have any automatic testing so this results in that
sometimes things breaks as it just did with the sorting functionality.
