If you use the GNOME or KDE dialog for open/search files within LO programs you are stick at their defaults and at least in nautilus (the gnome file browser) you can only sort -by default- by one field (filename, size, type...) and the last option you have selected does not remain after you close it. Fortunately the LO file browse dialog allows this option and keeps the column sorted by your last selection. To be sincere, I didn't know about this feature of the LO file dialog, but I knew about the two styles and at least one of them does it the way you need.
