Am I doing anything wrong or is it a bug? Page breaks as part of heading paragraph style can't set page numbering for me. (lemmy.ml)

Basically, title. What I'm trying to do is: have each chapter start with page 1. My chapters are marked as Heading 1 paragraphs. If I change Heading 1 style to «Insert, Pagea break, Before, With default page style, Page number 1», and add a Heading 1 paragraph, it indeed inserts an automatic page break before itself and starts on a new page with default page style, but page number is not set to 1: the numbering continues from previous chapter.

If I do Ctrl+Enter and set the exact same settings to a manual page break, the new page will start from a page number 1. The problem with this is that I would prefer to not do this manually, it is error prone, easy to forget or mess up, and in general I want to set up my styles so that everything is handled automatically without any direct/manual formatting.

Can anyone reproduce this issue?
