Your example dosn't share the same file name: even excluding the directory_name + _ prefix we still have Your File_01of06 and 01of6_Your File.
Do all the files names have this NNofMM part moved in this way?

  NAME
      dr_unsort - unsort the current mpd playlist

  SYNOPSIS
      dr_unsort

  DESCRIPTION
      dr_unsort invokes unsort(1) on the current audio playlist as used by mpd.  Use it if you'd like some variation in your music.

  EXAMPLE
      If The_Beatles/The_White_Album_I/03-Glass_Onion.ogg is the current playing track and your current playlist looks like

	Flying_Lotus/Los_Angeles/01 Brainfeeder.mp3
	The_Beatles/The_White_Album_I/01-Back_in_the_U.S.S.R..ogg
	The_Beatles/The_White_Album_I/02-Dear_Prudence.ogg
      > The_Beatles/The_White_Album_I/03-Glass_Onion.ogg
	The_Beatles/The_White_Album_I/04-Ob-La-Di,_Ob-La-Da.ogg
	The_Beatles/The_White_Album_I/05-Wild_Honey_Pie.ogg
	The_Beatles/The_White_Album_I/06-The_Continuing_Story_of_Bungalow_Bill.ogg
	The_Beatles/The_White_Album_I/07-While_My_Guitar_Gently_Weeps.ogg

	Flying_Lotus/Los_Angeles/07 Orbit 405.mp3
