Require Check Out Not Working for Documents in Outlook

Hi.

I have a SharePoint 2013 site with a basic document library for which the Require Check Out option is set.

On the SharePoint site everything works as expected when editing a document.

However, when the document library is connected to Outlook (2007), and a user opens a document for editing in Outlook, the check out is not being required.  The user is prompted to edit the document offline and then upload it to the server later.  This is not what we want - we want the user to be unable to edit the document at all without the document being checked out.

Some web searches suggest that this is how Outlook should be working - the user should be being prompted to check out the document.  But that's not what's happening.

Can anyone provide a clue as to what might be going wrong?

Thanks in advance.
