FactoryGirl belongs_to association's uniqueness validation fails

create_list(:post, 3) causes uniqueness validation to fail.

My factory that has a belongs_to association between Post and Author:

factory :post do
  author
end

factory :author do
  sequence(:internal_ref) { |n| n }
end

The Author model has a uniqueness validation on internal_ref.

UPDATE

After comments below that suggest cleaning the database, I have attempted to start from a brand new test database like this:

rake db:drop
rake db:create
rake db:schema:load
rake # to create test db and run the tests

And use the database_cleaner_gem like this in spec_helper:

config.before(:suite) do
  DatabaseCleaner.strategy = :transaction
  DatabaseCleaner.clean_with(:truncation)
end

Closing this question. It looks like this suite was creating a list of author records in seeds.rb and was loading seeds.rb before running the test suite.
