Problems with Solve?

` running in the notebook ( Sage 5.1 )

 --- this input ---

 var( "Z", "A" )
 equ   = 1.*Z/A^(1/3) + 2.*(A - 2*Z)/A == 0
 print equ
 sol = solve( equ, A )
 print sol

 --- gives ---
 Z/A^(1/3) - 2*(-A + 2.00000000000000*Z)/A == 0
 [
 A == -2*(A^(4/3) - 2*A^(1/3)*Z)/Z
 ]

--- my problem ---

if I have solved for A, why is A still on the RHS, I expected only Z as a variable. This problems is similar to the real one I am having with a much more complicated formula. `
