Hi,

I have this problem with sorting too. I have opened a bug for it
(http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=17304)I am not sure I have
been able to describe the issue adequately in the bug description
though. The bug report 17310 describes the same or a similar issue 

Normally I tag like this:

ALBUM: Requiem, op. 89, for Solo Voices, Chorus and Orchestra (CD 1)
ALBUMSORT: Dvořák, Antonín-1985
ALLPICTURES: [ HASH(0x6e834b8) ]
ARTIST: Antonín Dvořák
ARTISTSORT: Dvořák, Antonín
BAND: Czech Philharmonic Chorus and Orchestra
COMPOSER: Antonín Dvořák
CONDUCTOR: Wolfgang Sawallisch

What I have noticed is that when an artist in the ARTIST tag and the
composer in the COMPOSER tag are the same and contains accented
characters then sorting is broken, i.e. the ARTISTSORT tag does not
have any effect.

But after having read this thread I realised that I too have the
recording by Daby Touré & Skip McDonald and that one is correctly
sorted. So I started looking at the tagging of those files. 

Basically what I found is that adding just the ALBUMARTIST tag to my
example here above would remedy the sorting issue. I did not add the
ALBUMARTISTSORT tag. There is something very strange going on with
these tags in the database. Unfortunately I don't know enough about the
SBS database to start to look into this in detail myself.
