Question about alert logging

Hi,

I am just curious if anybody on the list have seen this problem before. 
With Snort 2.9.1 (I know, I am couple versions behind), an alert, 
regardless of the rule, will be logged in the alert file only once even 
if there is a valid threshold in the rule (ie. 300sec, type both, track 
by_src).  I am using the emerging threats ruleset.

Can it be a config issue?  I am using almost the stock config.

Thanks for your help.
