Issue parameterizing a custom Nonce

[Fiono11]

I am trying to run the following example from https://docs.rs/subxt/latest/subxt/book/usage/transactions/index.html#constructing-a-transaction-payload:

#![allow(missing_docs)]
use subxt::config::polkadot::PolkadotExtrinsicParamsBuilder as Params;
use subxt::{OnlineClient, PolkadotConfig};
use subxt_signer::sr25519::dev;

#[subxt::subxt(runtime_metadata_path = "../artifacts/polkadot_metadata_small.scale")]
pub mod polkadot {}

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    // Create a new API client, configured to talk to Polkadot nodes.
    let api = OnlineClient::<PolkadotConfig>::new().await?;

    // Build a balance transfer extrinsic.
    let dest = dev::bob().public_key().into();
    let tx = polkadot::tx().balances().transfer_allow_death(dest, 10_000);

    let latest_block = api.blocks().at_latest().await?;

    // Configure the transaction parameters; we give a small tip and set the
    // transaction to live for 32 blocks from the `latest_block` above.
    let tx_params = Params::new()
        .tip(1_000)
        .mortal(latest_block.header(), 32)
        .build();

    // submit the transaction:
    let from = dev::alice();
    let hash = api.tx().sign_and_submit(&tx, &from, tx_params).await?;
    println!("Balance transfer extrinsic submitted with hash : {hash}");

    Ok(())
}

But with the following params instead:

let tx_params = Params::new()
    .nonce(100)
    .build();

When I try to submit the transaction it gets stuck without any error. Any idea what may cause that?

Managed to solve this by requesting the subsequent nonce to the legacy RPC. But it still should work with a random nonce, just like the one that comes from the last finalized block with the new RPC, right?
