I have such a setup working without problems - at least since version
1.38.5.
IIRC the trick was to explicitely state whic pool to use if case of an
automatic level change, i. e. something like this:
Schedule {
Name="WeeklyCycle"
Run=Full FullPool=FULL 1st
sat at 00:05
Run=Differential FullPool=FULL DifferentialPool=DIFF
2nd-5th sat at 00:05
Run=Incremental FullPool=FULL DifferentialPool=DIFF IncrementalPool=INCR
sun-fri at 00:05
}
(This assumes you use the pool names "FULL", "DIFF" and "INCR", resp.)
