aeris epic - incorrect depth and time in samples

I'm having some trouble using the "universal" sample with my Aeris
Epic dive computer. After running, I get what appears to be correct
information for each dive, except for the samples. The depth is always
11.41, and despite the fact that my sampling interval is set to 1
second I only get a sample for every two seconds:

<sample>
   <time>00:04</time>
   <vendor type="5" size="8">5A0057025A005702</vendor>
   <temperature>24.44</temperature>
   <pressure tank="0">0.00</pressure>
   <depth>11.41</depth>
</sample>
<sample>
   <time>00:06</time>
   <vendor type="5" size="8">5A00570257005702</vendor>
   <temperature>24.44</temperature>
   <pressure tank="0">0.00</pressure>
   <depth>11.41</depth>
</sample>

I've compiled the samples on my machine and used the pre-built
binaries with the same result. I've also used the plugin from
diveboard.com to connect to my computer as well and had the same
problem. MacDive imports them just fine though. Odd, since I
understand both of these apps use libdivecomputer.

I'd very much appreciate any help. I'm hoping to develop some software
for analyzing this xml output as well as UDCF from the perspective of
the freediver. I've got some ideas for organization and visualization
that I think will be a lot more useful than the typical scuba-focused
software provides.
