Rsync broken since 6.7.1 & 6.7.3

Upgrading to 6.7.4 did not change anything.
Whether using rsync and backing up NAS to NAS or NAS to USB, only the folder structure is 'backed up' - no folder contents.
Using rsync to backup a share also does not back anything up.
This has been working properly until the recent FW updates.

If you are getting out of space or write errors, you might try; system > volumes > click gear > balance
Thanks for responding.
The settings haven't been changed - they were working for months / years OK
