I have had the belt from the mule drive wedge itself between the double stack of pulleys on the center spindle before. Enough tension to keep the belt "in place," but not enough to spin the deck in any meaningful way. Quickly destroys the belt, too. Culprit was a piece of debris that the belt pinched into the v ov the pulley, making it jump. Worth giving a quick look-see.
