Any idea?

Yes, this has caught me in the past as well.

The reason the 4th one is being printed as blank is that the spec says that force-page-count="auto" (which is the default) requires that a given page sequence end on an even page if the first page number of the following page-sequence is odd. As it is with your situation.

The way around it is to have force-page-count="no-force" on all of your page sequences, then they won't extend to an even page number when the subsequent one starts with an odd page number.

I hope this helps.
