This is a bug: Galaxy wasn't using this setting in converters. I've fixed this 
in -stable changeset 7105c53:

This is a problem between the UCSC chromosome naming convention (e.g., 'chr1') 
and the Ensembl naming convention (e.g. '1'). In most cases Galaxy handles this 
transparently, but the new converters do not. This is something that definitely 
needs to be implemented. Here's a card so that you can follow the feature's 
progress:
