Issue Description

Thank you for the report, I will investigate the issue.

Thanks, Also just adding some more information for the purposes of replication. I was using a metallurgic infuser, crusher, enrichment chamber, and and energized smelter, connected to a basic energy cube via hardened fluxducts.

That helps a lot, thanks.

I’m not sure that this issue is limited to mekanism as a similar issue occurred with my industrial foregoing rubber setup. A fluiduct connecting the tree exctractor to the latex processing unit continued to send liquid rubber even when the internal buffer of the latex processing unit was full and the machine was off. This resulted in that liquid rubber being voided, and basically the tree extractor never backstuffed with liquid rubber.
This should probably be a separate issue but I feel like they might be connected so I’m posting it here.

This is a Mekanism bug, I've seen it happen with energy conduits as well as universal cables.

What's odd is that the machine buffer itself never decreases, just the amount in the cables.

I cannot reproduce this with the same setup.
