Mobile Accounts and User Level Config Profiles?

I have a Computer Level Config that creates a mobile account when the user logs in to their network account.

I also have a User level Config that applies Restrictions on System Preferences.

Both of these roll out just fine, but I have noticed that any time I try to modify the User Level Config, the changes never get pushed to the client.

Is it because the account is now a mobile account instead of a network account, and so the changes doesn't get pushed? Would it be better deploying the config as a package? I'm ok doing that, but it defeats the purpose of the convenience of the MDM solution.

What if you create a new config profile that had your changes. Does it work then as a second profile stacked?

@btaniyama, it should work.

When editing the profile, are you choosing "Distribute to all" or "Distribute to newly assigned only"

@bentoms Distribute to all.

@pblake I'll give that a shot to see what happens!
