Indeed!  

I had taken the OP's initial problem and changed the src block to a
direct link to a figure so as to try it out.  The interesting thing is
that, with an image, the OP's attr_latex line being wrong leads to no
figure and no figure caption obviously.  Fixing that line allowed the
figure to appear along with caption and table of contents.  I totally
forgot about there being a src block in the original case!

The OP's problem was fundamentally about the wrong place for the
caption and attr_latex lines, as you indicate.

However, it would appear that my experiment highlights a lack of
robustness in the processing of attr_latex lines.  Having the figure
disappear completely because of an error in that line seems a little
drastic.  Unfortunately, trying to fix this is a little beyond me... :(
