preceding-sibling::x[title][1]
This will select the first x element (counting backwards) that has a
title. (so will return at most 1 node)
preceding-sibling::x/title[1]
This will select the first title element of each of the selected x
elements so will return any number of nodes.
(preceding-sibling::x/title)[1]
This will select the first title elemnt (in document order) that is a
child of the preceding sibling x elements (so will return at most 1
node)
From your description, I think you want the first of these.
