Magento goal funnels not registered as exits in Google analytics

I have a Magento goal set up in Google analytics, but none of the checkout
steps are ever registered as exits. Based on the goal funnel report, it
seems all users that reach the checkout onepage also reach the success
page, which is highly unlikely. I noticed the checkout steps are
registered correctly by Google, as I can see for example 200 page views
for saveBilling and 140 for savePayment, so I assume the steps are
registered.
I have noticed several other posts on this topic but none that would
explain this. The destination is set to "Begins with" and the value:
"/checkout/onepage/success/" and I have the following goals funnels setup
1. /checkout/cart/ (required)
2. ^/checkout/onepage/$
3. ^/checkout/onepage/\?register=
4. ^/checkout/onepage/saveBilling/$
5. ^/checkout/onepage/saveShipping/$
6. ^/checkout/onepage/saveShippingMethod/$
7. ^/checkout/onepage/savePayment/$
8. ^/checkout/onepage/saveOrder/$
9. ^/ops/payment/placeform/
I also tried setting the funnels without the starting ^ and the ending $
but still nothing Does anyone see any reason why no exits would be
detected?
