UNABLE TO DELETE BACKUPS AFTER A FULLBACKUP WITH THE KEEP UNTIL OPTION.

Our table libraries are running out of space because normal backups of the archive logs with a retention of 2 weeks are not being deleted with the "delete obsolete" command. Every end of the month we run a full backup with the keep option enabled. This backupset remains until its keep time expires which is the correct and expected behavior. But it seems it prevents the archivelog backups after it to be cancelled. We need to cancel all the tons of archivelog backups in between the FULL KEEP backups.
