Soft delete not working in Laravel 4

I can't manage to successfully delete an item with Asset::destroy($id) when soft delete is enabled (with protected $softDelete = true; in the model). The item doesn't get deleted, and deleted_at is not updated. However if I remove the soft delete line from the model, then the item gets removed from the database. I haven't been able to get soft delete to work, or even to find out the cause of this issue.

This is my Asset model code,

<?php

class Asset extends Eloquent {

    protected $guarded = array();

    protected $softDelete = true;   

    public static $rules = array(
            'message' => 'required'
        );

    public static function validate($data)
    {
        return Validator::make($data, static::$rules);
    }
}

Do you have the $table->softDeletes(); statement in your migration for this table, particularly?

This is the one you need to make the laravel knows it have to create the delete_at field, which indicates you soft deleted it or not! =D
