Files view in teams not updating

Hi

I am trying to set up a Teams area to collaborate on some documentation. I am having a problem with editing the default view which does not reflect the changes I am trying to make. I wanted to start with something simple like changing the field used to sort the items in the doc library, so I selected 'edit current view', a sharepoint window opened up where I made the change, which was then successfully applied in the sharepoint window, but not in the Teams application. I tried closing down Teams and reopening, but the items are still sorted in the same order. Any idea what I could be doing wrong?
