Are you perhaps setting your value on the hidden field with #value 
rather than #default_value? There's a note about that here:

http://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/developer--topics--forms_api_reference.html/6#hidden

"Note that if you plan to use JavaScript to change your hidden element's 
value, you will need to use the #default_value property rather than #value."
