Is there a way to disable initial sorting for jquery DataTables?

I'm using the jquery DataTables plugin. From their documentation:

If sorting is enabled, then DataTables will perform a first pass sort on initialisation. You can define which column(s) the sort is performed upon, and the sorting direction, with this variable. The aaSorting array should contain an array for each column to be sorted initially containing the column's index and a direction string ('asc' or 'desc').

Is it possible to have sorting enabled but disable this first pass sort on initialization? I am currently doing the initial sort server side and need sorting functionality but don't need this initial sort functionality.
