This may not solve your problem, but the nodes being selected by the
xsl:apply-templates are not being sorted with this code sample because
<xsl:sort/> is outside of the <xsl:apply-templates/> instruction. See what
happens when you do this:

<xsl:apply-templates>
    <xsl:sort select="..." data-type="..." order="..." />
</xsl:apply-templates>
