3par space usage not matching vmware?

can someone help me make sense of my 3par space usage stats vs vmware?  

We are running vmware 6.0 U2 and 3par 3.2.2. MU4.  For now, just focusing on a single 3par tpvv (zero detect enabled).  3par says that it is 14TB virtual size, 8.5 TB user size, and 2.4 TB used user size.  vmware is showing the total size of the datastore as 14tb (correct), but shows 12.68 TB as free (which implies 1.32 TB used)...this does not match the 3par stats.  I have recently deleted several vm's so i thought that maybe we just needed to run an unmap from our hosts and then i might see some more even numbers.  I ran the unmap from vmware but i don't really see any change.  I'm not sure what direction to look right now.
