CAS Single Sign Out requests being ignored by JSP+Spring

Question

I've set up CAS for single sign on with my Spring+JSP webapp, but now I've found out that single sign out isn't actually logging me out of the applications. I've confirmed that if I go to the CAS logout page, I do receive a SAMLP logout request from CAS. When I go back to a secured page in the app, however, I get in without logging back in to CAS. If I go to the local app logout page (/j_spring_security_logout), then I will get logged out and immediately redirected to the CAS login page.

In a nutshell, it appears that the local app isn't registering the logout request from CAS and calling its own logout procedure.

Here's the CAS portion of my web.xml

<filter>
    <filter-name>springSecurityFilterChain</filter-name>
    <filter-class>org.springframework.web.filter.DelegatingFilterProxy</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
    <filter-name>springSecurityFilterChain</filter-name>
    <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>

<filter>
    <filter-name>CAS Single Sign Out Filter</filter-name>
    <filter-class>org.jasig.cas.client.session.SingleSignOutFilter</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
    <filter-name>CAS Single Sign Out Filter</filter-name>
    <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
<listener>
    <listener-class>org.jasig.cas.client.session.SingleSignOutHttpSessionListener</listener-class>
</listener>

<filter>
    <filter-name>CAS Authentication Filter</filter-name>
    <filter-class>org.springframework.web.filter.DelegatingFilterProxy</filter-class>
    <init-param>
        <param-name>targetBeanName</param-name>
        <param-value>authenticationFilter</param-value>
    </init-param>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
    <filter-name>CAS Authentication Filter</filter-name>
    <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>

<filter>
    <filter-name>CAS Ticket Validation Filter</filter-name>
    <filter-class>org.springframework.web.filter.DelegatingFilterProxy</filter-class>
    <init-param>
        <param-name>targetBeanName</param-name>
        <param-value>ticketValidationFilter</param-value>
    </init-param>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
    <filter-name>CAS Ticket Validation Filter</filter-name>
    <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>

<filter>
    <filter-name>CAS HttpServletRequest Wrapper Filter</filter-name>
    <filter-class>org.jasig.cas.client.util.HttpServletRequestWrapperFilter</filter-class>
</filter>

<filter>
    <filter-name>CAS Assertion Thread Local Filter</filter-name>
    <filter-class>org.jasig.cas.client.util.AssertionThreadLocalFilter</filter-class>
</filter>

Do I need a specific CAS bean created to handle logouts in my applicationContext.xml files? Or is configured completely through the web.xml file?

When you debug the SingleSignOutFilter does it invalidate the user session? Maybe the CAS Token is being held in it, or in the SecurityContextHolder so it doesn't ask for a new login. I have a similar issue and am sorry to not be able to fully understand SS + CAS.
