I don't use XAE, but I know it uses Norm's XSL stylesheets
to transform Docbook. Its documentation is available at:
http://www.nwalsh.com/docbook/xsl/doc/
and the section on "Customizing DocBook XSL stylesheets"
tells you how to set parameters.
In your case, you need to create a stylesheet driver
file and set a couple of parameters:
<xsl:param name="section.autolabel" select="1"/>
If true (non-zero), unlabeled sections will be enumerated.
<xsl:param name="section.label.includes.component.label" select="1"/>
If true (non-zero), section labels are prefixed with the
label of the component that contains them.
That will number your sections the way you want them.
