Order problem with deep association

Shift hasMany Assignment
Assignment belongsTo Person, Shift
Person hasMany Assignment

So if I do this:

$this->Shift->find('all', array(
'contain' => 'Assignment.Person'
));

I get something like this:

Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[Shift] => Array
(
[id] => 1
etc...
[Assignment] => Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[id] => 1
[person_id] => 1
[shift_id] => 1
etc...
[Person] => Array
(
[id] => 1
[name] => Shantam
etc...
)
)
[1] => Array
(
[id] => 2
[person_id] => 2
[shift_id] => 1
etc...
[Person] => Array
(
[id] => 2
[name] => Alix
etc...
)
)
etc....
)
)
)

So there's only ever one Person per Assignment. How can I order the
Assignments by Person.name?

Thanks,
Jason
