David!

I use tables to get two images side-by-side.

This is my workaround for the issue:

<informaltable frame="none" rowsep="0" colsep="0">
 <tgroup cols="2">
<tbody>
<row>
 <entry>
<para>
<mediaobject>
   <imageobject>
  <imagedata fileref=""/>
   </imageobject>
</mediaobject>
</para>
 </entry>
<entry>
<para>
 <mediaobject>
   <imageobject>
  <imagedata fileref=""/>
   </imageobject>
</mediaobject>
</para>
 </entry>
</row>
</tbody>
 </tgroup>
</informaltable>

Cheers,
Roland
