Oh... if you use 'onUpdate', then you must follow the rules for Sortable.serialize (i.e. each element has an id that matches the pattern \w+_\d+ (such as item_1, item_2, etc)). This is because onUpdate uses Sortable.serialize before and after the drag to see if the value changed. If you would rather not bother with all that, just do 'onChange' instead, which is called every time the order changes during the dragging.
I ran into this same thing not too long ago.
