I'm a bit curious about this. I have been playing around with the bitcoin commands on testnet. Specifically the two you mentioned and I have had no issues. What did you do after you generated the address by using getnewaddress?
Did you ever recover the address? If so, please respond with what steps you took.
If you still have the same setup, what happens if you do the following... ? See if you can find it...
