Schedule a future post to a Facebook group

I'm trying to post a link to a facebook group:

$post_url = '/' . $my_group_id . '/feed';
$post_params = array('link' => $link, 'message' => $message)
$postResult = $facebook->api($post_url, 'post', $post_params);

This works great. Now I try to schedule this post to some future time. So I add the parameter:

'scheduled_publish_time' => strtotime($schedule),

And now I get one of two errors. If I don't add anything more, I get "(#100) You cannot specify a scheduled publish time on a published post" And if I add the parameter:

'published' => false

then I get "(#200) Unpublished posts must be posted to a page as the page itself."

However, this is a group, not a page, and to the best of my knowledge I cannot "post as the group itself", or can I?

I believe that based on the current design (as per 27-Oct-2013), I doubt there is any schedule for posting to group. The schedule is for page only.
