I have confirmed that it is sorting on the ID3 Title tag in alphabetical order.

Usually the client determines the sort order, either through a user specified value or a default value specific to the device.
Clients can request a sort order (which ReadyDLNA should be honoring). In cases where they don't, usually they are wanting to build the sort themselves, so ReadyDLNA doesn't (which speeds up delivery). There are one or two exception cases in the server (where sorting is forced for specific clients). But I am guessing your Samsung BD5800 isn't one of them.
There is a debug toggle for ReadyDLNA on legacy platforms, but I am not seeing a link for that with OS6.
One option is to try plex instead, and see if it sorts differently.
Thanks StephenB, I had been looking for the debug toggle but it doesn't seem to be around for the newer stuff as you said. Is there plans for this in the future?
