This is a known issue with the scheduler and MP3 does not fix it.  In
fact, the latest version of the scheduler (we get a new release every
day or two) still doesn't fix all of the issues.  The current release is
better than the previous ones, and it's quite possible that it's good
enough for you.

Please log a support call with Symantec.
