Hi I did write a detailed reply last week, but it seems to have gotten lost in the ether. But the long and short of it was basically to thank you for you swift response, and for the tips and advice. I actually fixed the problem by upgrading to jBPM 3.2.2. The fix (included in 3.2.2) that did the magic was http://jira.jboss.com:8080/jira/browse/JBPM-1044 - hopefully this short post makes it in this time.
