Same game against Toga II 1.1 :

[Site "n/a"]
[Date "2005.12.07"]
[Round "1"]
[White "Toga II 1.1"]
[Black "Rybka 1.0 Beta 32-bit"]
[Result "0-1"]
[Annotator "-5.27;-5.13"]
[SetUp "1"]
[FEN "8/5k2/4p1pp/8/1bbPP3/6P1/4NK2/8 b - - 0 1"]
[PlyCount "13"]
[TimeControl "600"]

1... e5 {Both last book move -5.13/14 18} 2. d5 {-5.27/20 18} h5 {
(Bc5+) -5.65/17 12} 3. Kf3 {(d6) -5.33/19 28} Ke7 {(Bc5) -5.81/18 14} 4. Ng1 {
(g4) -5.35/19 13} g5 {-5.81/19 16} 5. g4 {-6.54/22 43} h4 {-5.81/18 4} 6. Nh3 {

(Bd3) -5.81/18 4} 0-1

Something not quite right with your set up ?
