Just a litte thought, how come you are using 3D collisiions for a 2D map? Isometric is basicly a multi layered 2D grid that you happens to view from the side. So doing the collisions in object space would be a simple AABB bounding box test?

Yeah, I've been doing a bit of research into the best method for collision detection and AABB is probably the best way to go. Just need to implement it. Not too much of a problem at the moment since the bug only occurs on certain combinations of objects but it's definitely on my todo list.
