How to configure sequence separator of friendly_id gem

I am using the friendly_id gem version 4.0.9 in Rails 3, and I want to change the default sequence separator from - to _.

I tried this but it doesn't work:

class Restaurant < ActiveRecord::Base
   extend FriendlyId
   friendly_id do |config|
     config.base = :name
     config.use :slugged
     config.sequence_separator = "_"
   end
  .....
end

For Friendly_Id Gem 5.x with Rails 4.x (Might also work with lower versions of Friendly_Id Gem or Rails)

Add the following method to the model file where you are using Friendly_Id to generate slugs-

def normalize_friendly_id(string)
  super.gsub("-", "_")
end

Taken from the gem's tests on GitHub:

friendly_id :name, :use => :slugged, :sequence_separator => "_"

Should work...
