Default automatically suppress Space Before after a column break (Word 200

After a Continuous section break, I have created 2 columns. Styles have Space
Before and/or After. When I force a column with a column break, the second
column is keeping the Space Before. Please note I have already selected the
compatibility option 'suppress Space Before after a hard page break or column
break'. What am I missing?

The fact that this is a continuous section seems to be the issue. What you
can do is remove the spacing before manually (as direct formatting) from the
paragraph after the column break.
