I have this rule setup almost exactly the same as an email alert rule, yet the 
pages come every minute and the emails properly come every 5 minutes.

Is the repeat time setting not working for pages for any particular reason?

Here is the working email alert rule:
Delay (secs) - 120
Action - Email
Send clear messages - True
Enabled - True
Address (optional) - <blank>
Repeat Time (secs) - 600

Production State = Production
Severity >= Error
Event State = New


Here is the apparently broken pager alert rule:
Delay (secs) - 180
Action - Page
Send clear messages - True
Enabled - True
Address (optional) - <blank>
Repeat Time (secs) - 600

Production State = Production
Severity >= Error
Event State = New


So I triggered a critical event, and 2 minutes later I got an email alert, all 
good so far.  3 minutes after the first event I got a page, so far so good.  
Then the problem starts.  At this point I now get paged every minute, even 
though the repeat time is set to 600.  What is strange though is that I do get 
a second email alert at around the 600 second mark.  But pager alerts continue 
to come every minute:

Any ideas?
