Eddie and Wheel speed (SPD command)

Has anyone non-zero results for wheel speed when Eddie isn't moving? I'm having some situations where I can hear that drive power is applied (that lovely hum) but the Eddie isn't moving - during those states I get non-zero speeds for one of the motors. . Looking at the Propeller code it does look like the SPD results should all be coming off the encoders, but it feels like I'm somehow getting drive power instead of speed and that since it's only coming back on one of the motors, the power isn't enough to do a turn and that's where the read errors are coming from.

But I could be completely jumping to wrong conclusions - suggestions or observations are very welcome.
