The battery voltage is not a good indicator to use for judging successful operation since it is included in the protocol explicitly. It does not use the data structures that you are supposed to use for sensors.

Are you modifying the Dashboard application? Have you removed all of the unused data fields and added the ones you are interested in? Remember that the data format must match on the robot and in the dashboard or the dashboard will fail to unflatten the string.
