Changing default sorting on datatables jQuery Bootstrap plugin

Here's an example datatable:

http://jsfiddle.net/xF8hZ/10/

currently am using this JS to initialize the table:

$(document).ready(function() {
    $("#example").dataTable({
    "sDom": "<'row'<'col-lg-11'i><'col-lg-1'>r>t<'row'<'col-lg-6'l><'col-lg-6'p>
  });
});

I would like to change the default sort order from ascending to descending, how would I go about doing so? I have tried:

"order": [[ 3, "desc" ]]

however, that breaks the tables sorting buttons.

This code seems to work :

JS:

$(document).ready(function() {
    $("#example").dataTable({
    "sDom": "<'row'<'col-lg-11'i><'col-lg-1'>r>t<'row'<'col-lg-6'l><'col-lg-6'p>>",
        "order":[[3, 'desc']]
  });
});
