Recent work gives a transverse force on an isolated moving vortex which is independent of the normal fluid velocity, but it is widely believed that the asymmetry of phonon scattering by a vortex leads to a transverse force dependent on the relative motion of the normal component and the vortex. We show that a widely accepted derivation of the transverse force is in error, and that a careful evaluation leads to a much smaller transverse force. We argue that a different approach is needed to get the correct expression. \pacs{67.40.Vs,67.57.Fg,47.37.+q,47.32.Cc}
