Task sort order by date does not remain

Task sort order by date does not remain

I have a component on my customizable home page and would like to see the sort order by due date but every time I go to my home page the sort order by date does not remain as due date and I have to click it every time to get the due date sort order.  Yet in my activities for tasks the due date remains as the sort order so this is working fine, so it appears that this is an issue when adding a component to my customized home page, thanks.
