[AUCTeX] BibLaTeX bibliography not recognized

[Thomas Tuegel]

Hi,

I am using AUCTeX 12.1.0 in Emacs 25.3.1 and trying to compile a simple
LaTeX document using BibLaTeX 3.7 and Biber 2.7. The document and
bibliography file follow the body of my message.

AUCTeX does not recognize that this document has a bibliography. The
bibliography is not produced when I run `TeX-command-run-all', and LaTeX
complains about missing references. If I run Biber from the
`TeX-command-master' menu, then the bibliography is produced the next
time I run LaTeX. `LaTeX-bibliography-list' returns `nil', which seems
to confirm that AUCTeX is unaware of the bibliography. Yet,
`TeX-style-hook-list' confirms that the style hook for BibLaTeX is
loaded.

What else should I do so that Biber will be run automatically?

Thanks,
Thomas
