I posted a breadcrumb problem a couple days ago that it turns out is just a subset of this problem. I just tested this on a clean install of Drupal 7.2 with the same results. I apologize for the lack of brevity.
The problem is when creating a new menu, the menu items do not respect the child/parent relationship like they do with the default Navigation menu. I created a new menu called Client menu. I then created a Client content-type assigned to this menu in menu settings. Then I created a new Client page, Documentation, with a parent item of Client menu. Then I created another Client page, A Product, with a parent of Documentation.
I assigned Client menu to a block and it displays below Navigation. When I click Documentation, the A Product child does not display. Also, if I go to the A Product page directly, the breadcrumb shows Home > A Product, instead of Home > Documentation > A Product.
If I set Client menu to expanded, then A Product DOES display as a child. However, the breadcrumb still shows Home > A Product. When I click list links in admin, the nesting displays properly.
If I change the Client content type to use the default Navigation Menu instead of my Client Menu, everything works properly (proper breadcrumb trail, and clicking Documentation expands the sub-item).
What do I have to do to a new menu to make the menu items function like the Navigation Menu?
Thanks,
Adam
I found a couple issues on this:

[ Drupal support list | http://lists.drupal.org/ ]
I saw Menu Block mentioned in the issues, plan to try it today. There are some patches submitted that look solid too in case anyone else is struggling with this one.
Cheers,
