This is done by automatically by ScheduledRecording::signalChange() whenever
you save a ScheduledRecording object, which you have done (quite indirectly)
through the above procedure.  This sets a column in the database which is
checked by ScheduledRecording::hasChanged(), which the scheduler polls about
once per second (Scheduler::CheckForChanges).

I don't know why it wouldn't be triggered in your setup, but that should
give you more thna enough information to track down the problem.
