Peek in your fo output and scan for either "foo" (the
textobject) or "218.jpg".  If you get "foo", try reversing
the order of objects in your mediaobject.  The mediaobject
selection routine takes the first acceptable object,
which can be a textobject.

Or upgrade to the 1.60.1 stylesheets and add a role="fo"
attribute to the imageobject element.  That will put
it first in line to be selected for fo output.
