Sort option "sort by display album artist" not showing songs by the same artist in the correct order

Issue description

When I sorted my playlist by “display album artist” I expected songs to be sorted by artist, which they were, and then grouped and sorted by album. The songs were not grouped by album and don’t look to be in any particular order at all.

On desktop I use a different client where sorting works completely normally and when using musicbrainz picard to tag everything looks normal so I don’t think tags are the issue. If they are, I have no clue which ones.

I can also confirm that happens for every artist that has songs from multiple albums. When an artist in the playlist only has songs from one album, they are in the correct order.

I have tried:
Resyncing my library
Removing some tags that could be redundant and cause issues
Readding my media provider
Clearing scraped data

Please help
