If you use the cont-au.bst style to process your bib file, the bbl file will 
be sorted and you can use the bbl sort option. As far as I know, this is the 
only way.

\setupbibtex[sort=author]
\setuppublications[sorttype=bbl]

I noticed this if a book entry ends exactly at the end of a line. A change on 
line 147 of bibl-apa.tex fixed this:

    {\insertedition{, }{ edition.}{.}}%
% new version, watch the missing space after the final full stop

Maybe your problem has a similar reason.
