Login resets group level of joomla administrator

[FourMat]

Joomla 1.7
Jfusion 1.6.0 - slave plugin
OSCMax 2.0 rc1 - master plugin

I'm having an issue where, after syncing users, between Joomla 1.7 and oscmax, my joomla admin account level is automatically switched from "super user" to "registered" (default) when I log into the Joomla front end. To allow myself to access the joomla admin I have to edit the database to switch the group setting back to Super User.

The oscommerce plugin, when used this way does not have the option to select between the "simple" and "advanced" user group. Is this correct or does the "master' plugin not allow that option by design?

I have created a special customer group in OSCMax called Administrator and applied the jFusion joomla_int plugin group setting to create a separate usergroup pair corresponding to Administrator -> Super User inside of the joomla_int plugin. It does not seem to be able to pick up the non-default group setting from OSCM. Am I missing something? Is there a way I can prevent this from happening?
