Microsoft has an article for a workaround but it doesn't seem to help.

Any suggestions is appreciated. Thanks."

Is there a reason you are trying to run your backups through a maintenance plan? From what I've seen, the maintenenace plan problems tend to be difficult to troubleshoot. Why not just use a regular T-SQL "BACKUP DATABASE" command, put it in a job and forget about sqlmaint?
