SYNC Title Block to Sheet Set Manager

I'm not up to speed in configuring title blocks with sheet set manager and I've come into this situation unexpectedly.

 

I had to come up with a set of P&P sheets in a hurry to assist a contractor in providing a rough estimate for a sewer run, so I generated the sheets using the preconfigured imperial sheet set template. Afterwards I've switched out the border and title block generated by the template with our standard blocks. Our block attributes are old school and do not use fields. Now I am trying to upgrade those old attributes by replacing them with fields that reference the Sheet Set attributes.

 

Here is the problem: when inserting the field for the sheet number I can either use the CurrentSheetNumber or the SheetSetPlaceholder attribute. If I use CurrentSheetNumber, the title block shows the correct sheet number for the current sheet (the sheet I am making the edits from). However all the other sheets show that same number. In other words the fields do not show the corresponding sheet numbers from SSM. If I use SheetSetPlaceholder none of the title blocks will update to show the sheet number.

 

I believe I should be using the placeholder field but I can't get it to synchronize it with the SSM. Is there a way to make this work?

Seems to work fine for me. I modified fields for the sheet set and sheet within SSM, did a regenall and everything updated as expected.
