Why do my abbreviations not show up on the PDF?

I'm trying to get a list of abbreviations with the package acro. This is a minimal, reproducable Example:

\documentclass[13pt, titlepage]{article}
\usepackage{acro}

\begin{document}
\DeclareAcronym{uxo}{
 short = UXO ,
 long = Unexploded Ordenances , 
 tag = abbrev
}
\printacronyms[include=abbrev, name=Abkürzungsverzeichnis]   
\ac{uxo}

\end{document}

So printacronyms should print out all the acronyms I set with the tag abbrev, but all I get is the word "Abkürzungsverzeichnis". There are no Error-messages and I can use the abbreviations if I type \ac{auv} (like in the example). What is going on here?

The problem can be avoided by placing \DeclareAcronym in the preamble:

\documentclass[13pt, titlepage]{article}
\usepackage{acro}

\DeclareAcronym{uxo}{
 short = UXO ,
 long = Unexploded Ordenances , 
 tag = abbrev
}

\begin{document}
    
\printacronyms[include=abbrev, name=Abkürzungsverzeichnis]   
\ac{uxo}

\end{document}
