I learn something new every day - I didn't even know that you could
rotate a table :-) I just tested on the Ubuntu'ized 2.2 version, the OOo
Official 2.2 version (installed from the RPM's but converted to .debs
for install), and StarWriter 8, all correctly rotate both text and
numbers. Sample file that I used was actually a .doc file from the US NIST:
ts.nist.gov/WeightsAndMeasures/upload/AppendC-07-HB44-Final.doc
http://ts.nist.gov/WeightsAndMeasures/owmhome.cfm
http://ts.nist.gov/WeightsAndMeasures/pubs.cfm
http://ts.nist.gov/WeightsAndMeasures/h44-07.cfm

Can you try using the same from a fresh OOo (close & reopen OOo)?
To rotate I:
Format|Styles and Formating|Table (right
click)|Modify|Position|Rotation/Scaling|90 degrees
Not sure if that's the correct way to do it, but that's what I used.
Tried your way, same result. I do like this:
Select text/table cell/whole table -> Right click -> Character ->
Position -> Rotation/scaling -> 90 degrees
or (same effect):
Select text/table cell/whole table -> Right click -> Edit Paragraph
Style -> Position -> Rotation/scaling -> 90 degrees
