Public bug reported:

Banshee

Add a few directories of sound files with no metadata to your library.
(You could just rip a single track from a CD to a wav file, then copy it
to files with different names - track1, track2, etc.)

Click "All Artists".  Scroll down to the end, where you find "Unknown
Artist, Unknown Album".  Click on it.

Actual result: tracks are sorted completely randomly, with no respect for filename or directory.
Expected result: tracks should be grouped by directory, and sorted alphabetically.  (Well, ideally with version-sort to cope with "track2", which is alphabetically early than "track10").  Also, the same sort order should be applied to directories (for multi-disk albums / audiobooks).

For comparison: If you click on "Unknown artist" in the list of
_artists_, instead of "Unknown album" in the list of _albums_, the
tracks seem to be sorted correctly.
