The only case I see when "flush" does not affect database is incorrect dbRef param in
get VDatabase_Flush( dbRef ) call.
Please check it.
Btw, it would be something like this ""Wrong ref for ..." in V4REV log.

Also, please diagnose your db (just in case) - is it healthy or not.

What about another (fresh) database - do you see changes after "Flush"?
I mean is this issue specific to particular db instance / server?

I can assist you via TeamViewer if you need it.
