no data containing the call to albums and photos

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. call Facebook.api("/me/albums",getAlbumHandler); in your flex web app and 
watch the result.
In the network monitor it seems to be correct 
https://graph.facebook.com/me/albums?access%5Ftoken=1126040etc... but the 
answer contains no data.

And YES every other call (like ex. 
Facebook.api("/me/statuses",getStatusHandler)) is working fine. everything else 
has the expected result.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

{
   "data": [
      {
         "id": "ID_HERE",
         "from": {...}
         "name": "CeBIT 2011",
         "location": "Hannover",
         "link": "http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=37392&id=100000854780525",

etc...

instead there is no data:

{
   "data": [

   ]
}

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Flex 4.1
GraphAPI 1.6
app is running on a webserver

Please provide any additional information below.

Have you granted the "user_photos" permission for the app?

yes i granted "user_photos" and other, "similar" permissions just to be sure... 
In other cases and wrong permissions i got back "error": { "type": 
"OAuthException",...

I've tried the same logged in with an other facebook account and also with a 
fql request and got the same result "[]".

The examples that i've found are only for FacebookDesktop, and they all working 
fine for me. But for the Web API i really don't know whats the problem.

Is this issue still occurring? Wondering if it was just a problem on Facebook's 
side of things.
