The validation is done before it calls the action's execute method - so if you get validation errors you won't see the debug output you put into your action - it forwards to what you defined in the "input" parameter before that.
Sounds to me like your validation is working - as Adam said - put an <errors/> tag on your form and you should see the errors.
