Try using a dedicated ID3 Tag editor like Musorg and see if the track
number information is correct.  Also, try to make sure that the ID3 tag
version is at least v2.3.

iTunes is good at respecting ID3 tags, as it was one of the earliest
big-name MP3 players that supported it.  If it does not see the track
number info, then something buggy might have happened with the way
abcde(1) tagged your music after the encoding step.
