OK Well this must be a bug I guess but I managed to get it to work.

For some reason the first one was trying to give the js response to
the action.  So for the hey of it I used 3 button_to's and the bottom
two worked while the first one was giving me the same response.

<div style="display: none;"><%= button_to 'Download PCCIS file',
        :action => 'downloadpccis' %></div>
<%= button_to 'Download PCCIS file',    :action => 'downloadcis' %>
<%= button_to 'Download PCCIS file',    :action => 'downloadpccis' %>
