Yes, I'm having the same issue (PE v.1.1), anonoying as it has recked the cave spider xp farm I was trying to build. I placed lots of wooden signs to control the water flow. I went to bed in the game and nearly, not all (approx 15 out of 20) detached from each other and ended up at the bottom of the water flow. The ones attached to the walls did stay however. I have replaced them several times, it doesn't matter whether I save and exit, or go to bed in game, a random amount detaches! Very frustrating and ruining the game for me. If anybody knows an alternative to placing signs to control water flow in the mean time, please let me know.
Edit to the above PE on Android v1.1.5 ...plus I spelt wrecked wrong :/
