dblink can't update a table on the same database in an after UPDATE trigger

问题

I am working on a database replicated using slony and trying to create a trigger which will be triggered after an INSERT operation on a table.

In this trigger I am trying to update another table of THE SAME database using dblink. But I am getting an error saying that the value I just inserted in the first table does not exist when I am trying to update the second table.
I am using dblink because if I update the second table with a regular UPDATE statement, slony synchronization is not triggered.

First table:

CREATE TABLE "COFFRETS"
(
  "NUM_SERIE" character varying NOT NULL,
  "DATE_CREATION" timestamp without time zone NOT NULL DEFAULT now(),
  "DATE_DERNIERE_MODIF" timestamp without time zone NOT NULL DEFAULT now(),
  "NOMENCLATURE" integer NOT NULL,
  "COMMANDES_DETAILS_ID" integer,
  "DEBLOCAGES_ID" integer,
  "ETAT" integer NOT NULL DEFAULT 1,
  "EXPEDITIONS_ID" bigint,
  "STOCKISTE_EXPE_ID" integer,
  "STOCKISTE_RCPT_ID" integer,
  "SITE_ID" integer,
  "FACTURES_ID" integer,
  "CMDDETECH_ID" integer,
  "FACTURE_AVE_ID" integer,
  "SHIPPING_ID" integer,
  "SYNCHRONISE" boolean DEFAULT false,
  CONSTRAINT "COFFRETS_pkey" PRIMARY KEY ("NUM_SERIE"),
  CONSTRAINT "FK_SHIPPING" FOREIGN KEY ("SHIPPING_ID")
      REFERENCES "SHIPPING" ("ID") MATCH SIMPLE
);

Second table:

CREATE TABLE "SHIPPING"
(
  "DATE_AJOUT" timestamp without time zone NOT NULL,
  "DATE_DERNIERE_MODIF" timestamp without time zone NOT NULL,
  "ORDRE_PRODUCTION" text,
  "AIRE_APPRO" text,
  "DATE_ENVOI" timestamp without time zone,
  "DATE_LIVRAISON" timestamp without time zone,
  "REF_CARRIER" text,
  "QTE" numeric,
  "NUM_CONTRAT" text,
  "COMMENTAIRES" text,
  "ID" serial NOT NULL,
  "POSTE_TRAVAIL" text,
  "POSTE_CONTRAT" integer,
  CONSTRAINT "Pkey_ID_SHIPPING" PRIMARY KEY ("ID")
);

Trigger:

CREATE TRIGGER test
  AFTER INSERT
  ON "SHIPPING"
  FOR EACH ROW
  EXECUTE PROCEDURE "AffectationShipping"();

Trigger function:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION "AffectationShipping"()
  RETURNS trigger AS

    RETURN NEW;

As for the error message, I do not know how to make PostgreSQL print messages in English.

Basically it says that the SHIPPING_ID foreign key does not exist in the shipping table.

The weird thing is that when I try to do the update without using dblink_exec it works fine. But as I previously said, I need to to this update through dblink to make sure slony will notice the update.
