I have not been able to reproduce this, it works for me.

	joey@darkstar:~/tmp>git init a1
	Initialized empty Git repository in /home/joey/tmp/a1/.git/
	joey@darkstar:~/tmp>cd a1
	joey@darkstar:~/tmp/a1>git annex init
	init  ok
	(recording state in git...)
	joey@darkstar:~/tmp/a1>date > foo
	joey@darkstar:~/tmp/a1>date > bar
	joey@darkstar:~/tmp/a1>git annex add
	add bar
	ok
	add foo
	ok
	(recording state in git...)
	joey@darkstar:~/tmp/a1>git commit -m add
	[master (root-commit) fdd215f] add
	 2 files changed, 2 insertions(+)
	 create mode 120000 bar
	 create mode 120000 foo
	joey@darkstar:~/tmp/a1>rm foo
	joey@darkstar:~/tmp/a1>git commit -a -m rm
	[master 1f84de1] rm
	 1 file changed, 1 deletion(-)
	 delete mode 120000 foo
	joey@darkstar:~/tmp/a1>git annex unused
	unused . (checking for unused data...) (checking master...) 
	  Some annexed data is no longer used by any files:
	    NUMBER  KEY
	    1       SHA256E-s30--11de88d41da5962620f4a0590a577710e067d72e0f24220c4a4d2e81d594388a
	  (To see where this data was previously used, run: git annex whereused --historical --unused
	  
	  To remove unwanted data: git-annex dropunused NUMBER
	  
	ok
	joey@darkstar:~/tmp/a1>cd ..
	joey@darkstar:~/tmp>git clone a1 a2
	Cloning into 'a2'...
	done.
	joey@darkstar:~/tmp>cd a1
	joey@darkstar:~/tmp/a1>git remote add a2 ../a2
	joey@darkstar:~/tmp/a1>git annex move --unused --to a2
	move SHA256E-s30--11de88d41da5962620f4a0590a577710e067d72e0f24220c4a4d2e81d594388a (to a2...) 
	ok

You did say it's not moving "some files" which suggests maybe it is moving
other ones? Do you see it move any unused files at all?

Do other commands that use the same --unused option work? Eg, does 
`git annex whereis --unused` list them?

The only way I can reproduce this behavior is if the remote has
the same uuid as the current repository. Then any move is a no-op
and it avoids operating on the files at all, the same as your output shows.
So it seems possible that could be your real problem.
