In other preferential voting elections I have seen, ties in the final run-off were determined by who got the most first place votes in the first round.   Ties for last place (to see who gets eliminated first) were determined by holding an "instant run-off" between the tied candidates among all voters.

I don't know how actual countries that use PV resolve ties, but of course they would be were rare with thousands or millions of voters.
