Comment (by ramonopoly):

 This bug came up when I was trying to filter attachment posts by
 `media_type`

 https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/64042

 My workaround was, when multiple attachments have the same post_date, to
 add ID as secondary sort to guarantee consistent ordering.



 {{{
                                 $query_args['orderby'] = array(
                                         'date' => $query_args['order'] ??
 'DESC',
                                         'ID'   => 'DESC',
                                 );
 }}}


 Similar to what #52907 proposes and what I think @ramon-fincken does with
 the latest patch?
