Trouble understanding how to declare a field type. [message #1845273]

I'm trying to get autocompletion for fields working, but I have no luck so far, but maybe I'm just misunderstanding how it is supposed to work.

Assume the following file:

local A = {}

A.something = "something"
A.value = "value"

return Container

That is then used like this:

local A = require("module.sub.a")

local B = {}
B.a = provider_for_a()

I haven't managed to declare "B.a" to be of type "A" so far. From my understanding, this should do the trick:

--- @field #module.sub.a
B.a = provider_for_a()

-- Or maybe...

--- @field #A
B.a = provider_for_a()

But neither seems to be honored by autocompletion.

What am I missing?
