My guess would be you missed the first of the two prerequisites mentioned in
the docs:
---
Two prerequisites to using the functions
1. Have all meter changes in a \global variable, e.g.:
global = { \time 4/4 s1*2 \time 5/8 s8*5*2 \time 3/4 s2.*2 }
This enables arranger.ly to convert all measure numbers to LilyPond moments.
---
No computer at hand to test, but my gut feel tells me when you move the 3/4
time sig to your global it starts working as you expect
