Getting scale override call error from R cobalt package

Question

When I run this code I get Error in scale_override_call(call) : could not find function "scale_override_call"

I've checked that cobalt is being called, I've tried restarting R, I've uninstalled and reinstalled the cobalt package, and even sent the code chunk to a friend who's able to run it fine. But I can't get it to run without the error. Any ideas what's wrong here?

match_data <- matchit(
  union_member ~ gender + past_union_member + family_income, 
  data = labor_white, 
  method = "nearest", 
  distance = "mahalanobis", 
  estimand = 'ATT',
  ratio = 1,
  replace = TRUE)

summary(match_data)


mah_bal <- bal.tab(
  match_data,
  un = TRUE,
  binary = 'std',
  data = labor_white
)
love.plot(mah_bal)

Try upgrading your R version to 4.3.3. Was getting this error and it fixed it for me. If that doesn't work, I'd uninstall and reinstall the package and then R.
