I know this has been a problem for a lot of people, but I can't seem to find an answer to my flavor of it in the threads or videos I've read and watched.

I just hooked up some DSUs for my basic bee products (honeydew, propolis, beeswax, and honey drops), and I want to make those my sole storage for those items, which from what I understand is supposed to be done with the Storage Bus.

The problem is that there seems to be some of those items that only pop up in my system while my DSUs are connected--but they aren't in my DSUs. All 4 of those DSUs have ~40-100 items fewer than what is listed in my terminal, and when I disconnect them altogether, the item disappears from my terminal altogether. I tried hooking up an export bus and waiting in case there was some buffer somewhere that was still processing them, but nothing comes out of the export bus. But then when I reconnect them to the system again, voila: those items are back, both the ones in my DSUs and the ghost ones.

This wouldn't be that much of an issue except that when new items are piped in from my bees, they start filling up the ME system rather than routing to my DSUs, even with the priority set above my drives.

You can see how this is so frustrating for me.

Anyone ever encounter this version of that old problem with these buses?

Hm. Now it's moving new items into my DSUs even though the numbers still don't match up.... I doubt I'll have any critical problems with these particular items and that number mismatch, but I don't want to get into that situation with another type of item. So I'd still like to find a solution to the mismatch if anyone has one.
