Cross referencing does not work when changing seq_id (MS Word output)

[eeenilsson]

Using rmarkdown::render to knit the following .rmd file below. The cross reference does not work in MS Word, displaying a ? at the reference and a table caption looking like this "(#stab:airquality6)airquality dataset". It works as expected when seq_id is set to "tab".

Test a table with different seq_id:

This is a reference to Table \@ref(tab:airquality6).

This is a reference to Table \@ref(stab:airquality6).

```{r} 
library(officer)
ft <- flextable(head(airquality))
ft <- set_caption(ft, "airquality dataset", 
  autonum = run_autonum(seq_id = "stab", bkm = "airquality6"))
ft

Ok, i was using bookdown::word_document2: in the yaml header. Changing it to officedown::rdocx_document: made it work like expected.
