I have a 2d floor bathtub with a shower.  Whenever someone takes a bath, water leaks down to the 1st floor bathroom.  It was so bad I had to have the ceiling in the downstairs bathroom replaced. This only happens when someone takes a bath, not when someone uses the shower.  I recently had a plumber replace the assembly that controls the bathtub drain because we thought that's what was causing the leak.  He ran the shower for a good 5 minutes and no water appeared downstairs.  At the time, I didn't realize that the leak was apprent only when someone used the tub.  Well, someone took a bath and the leak started again.  I was told that while they were taking a bath, the water was leaking from the tub.  How can that be?  Help!!
