I hate answers like the one I'm about to give - but you might want to 
upgrade to at least 2.14 or 2.18 - the "save as" to GPX works really 
well in those versions - and I use it with Garmin GPS units all the 
time. It seems like that at 2.12 you were still setting options in the 
"Save As" Dialog.
