Postgresql auto-increment field problem

I’m using LlibreOffice Base (English) 4.2 to connect to Postgresql 9.3. My OS is Windows 7 64-bit. I could connect successfully and create tables. My problem is with auto-value fields (for primary key) which are not getting filled up in the data entry form. I tried looking through forums but I’m unable to find the solution. Can someone please help with this?

Known limitation of current SDBC driver :
