How are you creating the dumps of the sequence and the table? If you do
both separately (as in two pg_dump invocations with a -t switch each),
that could explain your problem. This shouldn't really happen however,
because the sequence dump should be emitted in a dump of the table, if
the field is really of SERIAL or BIGSERIAL type. However I don't see
any other way which would make the sequence go out of sync.
