Series not showing on Kobo device.

Hi, I've got a Kobo Libra, and am using Calibre to set my books' metadata. I have several books with which I've set the series name and index, but it isn't showing on the Kobo. Typically, the series info shows in the Books view between the title and author, as:

Code:
Title
Series - Index
Author
With an ebook modified months ago, this shows correctly but on Calibre 6.17 this doesn't seem to work for me. Curiously, the info shows when I check the metadata editor in Sigil, so I don't know if it's a weird Calibre issue, or a weird Kobo issue.

A few miscellaneous notes:
  • Using Calibre 6.17
  • In Calibre, I've done a "Polish" to add the metadata to the epub file.
  • I'm using the Kobo Touch Extended Driver plugin to convert the file to kepub as it sends to device.
  • See attachments for the data as entered in Calibre, and the metadata of the kepub on device as viewed in Sigil.
  • Kobo Libra has current firmware.

Is anyone else having these issues and/or know a solution? Thanks in advance.
