Default Problem with custom table styles

According to an MS Word team blog, the trick to getting fonts specified in
table styles to hold when they are different from the text font is to
1. set the document text font and formatting on the default tab (styles pane
manage styles button default tab) and

2. leave normal style empty (that is, allow normal to take its font
formatting from the default style).

I am creating a template in Word 2007. The normal font is Garamond 11pt. I
have created a custom table style which uses Arial 8pt.

When I apply the custom style, it applies Garamond 11pt instead of Arial
8pt.

All other aspects of the custom style are applied correctly (bold, shading,
font colour) just not the actual font. I have tried setting every occurence
of "font" within the design as Arial 8pt but it will not work.
