Comment:

 I have encountered this problem as well. I'm not sure why, but
 get_query_var( 'paged' ) always seems to return an empty value where
 is_front_page() returns true. I believe that this is a bug as well.

 @juggledad - You can use the following code in your page template to allow
 the proper value to be applied to the $paged global.
 {{{
 global $paged;
 $paged = get_query_var( 'paged' );
 if( is_front_page() ) {
         $paged = get_query_var( 'page' );
 }
 }}}
