If you want the section ids to be used as the filename for chunked 
output then you need the handily named stylesheet parameter 
'use.id.as.filename'. To set this parameter add the following somewhere 
in you stylesheet customization.

<xsl:param name="use.id.as.filename">1</xsl:param>


If you look in the docbook xsl stylesheet directory there is a folder 
named 'params' and in there you will find a single file for each 
parameter, named after the parameter, which contain a description of 
what the parameter does. Cunning eh!

Hope this helps
