Writing Custom CAD Linestyles using DGN Writer

I have been having trouble writing geometries into custom linestyles in dgn. I have specified the seed file in the writer parameters and have set the color, style and weights using the "From Seed File" level overrides in the writer. However, when I write out the dgn, the custom linestyles seem to be dropped.

I have attached an image with some test lines. The dgn on the right is the dgn that was written out and the dgn on the left is what I am working towards. I created my seed file by deleting all the lines I drew in the dgn on the left. Does anyone have any advice?
