Dear Michael,

The problem stems from the "Transfinite" meshing constraints: the automatic 
"Transfinite Volume" command (i.e. when the corners of the transfinite 
interpolation are not provided) does not guarantee that the volume and surface 
meshes will match - it should thus be used carefully. In your case the commands 
are not necessary - remove them and you will get the expected mesh.
