Transaction description only showing in refunds

Hi, we're using AIM and we're passing a transaction description but we only see it when we do a refund not on our PRIOR_AUTH_CAPTURE. Any suggestions?

 

Here's a code example of a refund where we get the description field:

 

[FILTERED]&x_relay_response=FALSE&x_type=CREDIT&x_delim_data=TRUE&x_delim_char=%2C&x_encap_char=%24&x_trans_id=459000056&x_card_num=[FILTERED]&x_first_name=First&x_last_name=Last&x_invoice_num=W120822008&x_description=2013-05-092013-05-16+++++++++++++++++++++++Windjammer+Landing+Villa+Beach+Resort++306-2725&x_amount=4261.69&x_test_request=FALSE"

 

Here's a code example where of a Prior Auth Capture where we don't get the description:

 

[FILTERED]&x_relay_response=FALSE&x_type=PRIOR_AUTH_CAPTURE&x_delim_data=TRUE&x_delim_char=%2C&x_encap_char=%24&x_trans_id=4600002694&x_customer_ip=127.0.0.1&x_invoice_num=W120827058&x_description=2012-11-192012-11-20++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Ramada+Cancun+City069-865848&x_amount=42.81&x_test_request=FALSE"

The most likely answer is it isn't being passed properly. Have you copied and pasted the description to a print just before the transaction is created, so you can make sure it's actually there? Does the description show up in your control panel if you look up the transaction?
