SoapUI fails assertions when using information from request after upgrading to READY API 1.8

I've been using SoapUI assertions to compare with information from the request being pushed out. Once I upgraded to READY API 1.8, all of my test cases failed. When I reverted back to READY API 1.7, all of my test cases miraculously passed again. for the short term, I am guessing that I will need to stay on 1.7 until this issue gets resolved.

Expected Result Example: ${#TestSuite#createdAccountId}
