sorting problem in a digikam album

The sorting is correct. It is a sorting according to the natural string 
comparison (follow numbering and separators). A test here with the Dolphin file 
manager shows the same sorting.

But you can set the string comparison to Normal in the digiKam settings under 
Miscellaneous -> Behavior.
