pending slurm jobs not showing up in sacct

I am experiencing an issue with slurm where sacct does not show pending jobs. Below, you can see that job 110061 doesn't show up in sacct but is clearly pending in squeue. Any ideas as to why this would happen?

[plcmp14evs:/sim/dev/ash/projects/full-trees] 153% sacct -j 110061
       JobID    JobName  Partition    Account  AllocCPUS      State ExitCode
------------ ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- --------
[plcmp14evs:/sim/dev/ash/projects/full-trees] 154% squeue -j 110061
  JOBID PARTITION    STATE     USER       TIME TIMELIMIT  NODES NODELIST(REASON) NAME
 110061  eventual  PENDING    andrew      0:00 UNLIMITED      1   (Priority)    [rf] script.8.R

-- Edit --

This is the output of scontrol show config | grep Acc

AccountingStorageBackupHost = (null)
AccountingStorageEnforce = none
AccountingStorageHost   = localhost
AccountingStorageLoc    = /disks/linux/tmp/slurm_accounting.txt
AccountingStoragePort   = 0
AccountingStorageType   = accounting_storage/filetxt
AccountingStorageUser   = root
AccountingStoreJobComment = YES
JobAcctGatherFrequency  = 3 sec
JobAcctGatherType       = jobacct_gather/linux

At this point there is nothing to record, since the job has not even started yet.
