Mesh export issues. FBX vs obj paint room vs retopo

Does anyone know what the differences are between exporting from the retopo and paint rooms? I'm having issues when exporting fbx+textures from the paint room (importing into Substance Painter).

Attached images show the menu items I'm using to export the mesh from each room. The problem is:

Exporting to fbx from the paint room (mesh + normal map, see paint-export image for settings) results in the problems labeled "FBX Export - paint room".

Exporting using obj doesn't have this problem. Likewise if I use the Retopo->Export menu in the retopo room I have no problems with fbx and obj continues to work. (using the normal map exported from the paint room)

 

Is this a bug with fbx export from the paint room or is there something fundamentally different about exporting from the two different places? If it's different why does obj work in both rooms?
