fasterq-dump not splitting files?

I just upgraded my sra toolkit so I could download reads faster with fasterq-dump, but despite the fact I am using -S option, I am just getting single read files? Am I misunderstanding something here? Note that I know for some of the accesions I get forward and reverse reads with fastq dump in the older version of sra toolkit, so it is not an issue with the data. Any help is appreciated.

You sure the data is paired? Please give a link.
