SharePoint workflow status column not updating in OOTB approval workflow

$

I have a simple OOTB approval workflow. Enabled "automatically start on item create" and "on item change"

The workflow status doesn't update when new version of doc is uploaded. This only happens when the workflow is associated with thecontent type in the doc lib. 

The workflow works fine with the first version of the document. However once the doc is approved, the workflow status will stay as "APPROVED" with any new version doc uploaded. The workflow will still kick off with the new version of the doc. Only this workflow status column still pointing to the first approved workflow instance page and not pointing to the latest workflow instance. 

I enabled content approval. It is same behavior with the workflow status column. It shows "approved" even there is a new workflow "in progress". The "approval status" of course, changes as supposed to.

Is this a known bug? How to fix it? Thanks!


If you get confused, listen to the music play...
