So what I thought was a amcl problem is actually a nav_view problem. It works like it should in rviz. 
In nav_view, the problem seems to be that the green circle is not moving. The particle cloud was properly moving around it. I'm guessing this is either a misconfigured tf-frame or amcl_pose not being subscribed to properly. 

Thanks Eitan, Brian and Tully for helping me through this.

Hi David,

It's odd that the scans would be transformed properly but not the particle cloud.

What happens if you drive the robot around? Are the laser scans continually displayed correctly? Does the tf tree look correct in rviz?

The laser readings appear in the correct place, but the point cloud does not, which is why I figured that it amcl was not working.
