You're changing the type and name in the wrong place; you're changing
the information for the array elements instead of the whole array.  

One other suggestion I have is to make the arguments

SOAP::Data->type(arg0 => \@arrayname)

but this is a real long shot.

I'm beginning to think you might have to override the array encoding in
SOAP:Serializer, which is getting out of my league; read the man pages.
Could you also post the code you tried with my suggestion, just so I can
see what you used?
