Restore from system backup results in empty databases

Since we have installed Plesk 7.5.4 on our servers we have problems restoring one (or more) domains from the system backups. Everything gets restored correctly, only the databases are empty. No errors are shown during the restoration process:

Restoring mysql database '<dbase name>' ... done

Does anyone experience the same problem? And if known, is there a solution to this problem?

If we run a single domain backup-restore, the database is restored correctly, only from system backups is does not work.

System software is Centos 3.4 and Plesk 7.5.4

Any hints?
 
Have you upgraded the backup utils? Have you tried to restore and backup with the same version utils? What OS and Mysql version do you have on the server?

The empty databases show up in all cases: as well when we restore from centos 3.4 to centos 3.4, from centos 3.4 to centos 4.x and the other way around (from centos 4.x to centos x).
