Do the recipes use baking soda for leavening?  If so, the acidity of  
the buttermilk is likely the trigger for the baking soda.  I have no  
idea how acidic soy milk is, so you might try substituting it and see  
if it works. If it doesn't, try adding about 1/4 teaspoon of cream of  
tartar, which is often used in recipes to provide the acid that  
activates the baking soda.
