XML Importer overwriting existing entries, instead of adding a new entry

For months now, I've been using a CRON job to automate a daily import to a section via XML Importer.
It's been working without a hitch until I recently upgraded to 2.2.x and above.
I have the XML Importer set to populate around 7 or so fields in the section. My entry date field is set to my unique field (which imports in an ISO formatted date, ex. 2012-03-27).
I have it set to update existing entries based of the unique field. What's been happening instead of updating the entry it writes over my most recent entry and replaces it with the new date and new entry.
If I uncheck the ability to update existing entries, it never imports new entries, it just says 1 skipped.
For some reason around the point I had about 70 entries, this started happening, plus this was after I upgraded to the 2.2.x version of Symphony.
I'm using the latest XML Importer, version 1.1.
Any thoughts on what could be causing this?
