Summary16190: The sort button not sorting answers for other languages
Description
  1. Clicked the "Sort answers alphabetically" button in the "display" answer area.
  2. Previewed the question.
  3. Changed the language of the survey and saw there's no sorting on the rest of the languages.

I have tried to workaround that problem with this tweak, but it didn't work for me.

Can confirm that the problem exists in the latest version 5+. The issue lies here: https://github.com/LimeSurvey/LimeSurvey/blob/master/application/models/Question.php#L722
The problem is that the $this->survey->language returns the survey base language and not the "survey language". Unfortunately I was not able to figure out how to get the survey language properly, so I would like to get some help with this. At the moment I used this $SESSION['survey'. $this->sid]['s_lang']

Hope this helps someone out who could make a proper PR out of this.

I went ahead and installed a fresh copy of 5.3.4+220309 and it seems that this issue is fixed and alphasort works. So sorry for saying it does not work in the latest version - I now need to understand what exactly causes this issue on our instance.
