Backup exec jobs won't run but go to queued.

Discovered today (after a lot of hassles) that Backup Exec may have a problem where backups to a disk folder does not work and ends up in a queued status. Eventually discovered that if you drag the "backup to disk" media to the scratch media pool then the backups start working again.
Didn't find anything on the veritas/symantec web site about this and nothing in google either so hopefully this will help other people out.
