XML deserialization error "Element not expected"

I know this has been asked before, but I checked other threads and no one helped me. I am trying to deserialize xml for an object and I get the error:

"<doPublish xmlns='http://usdoj.gov/leisp/lexs/publishdiscover/3.1'> 
   was not expected."

      

        
        
        
      

    

My XML looks like this:

<lexspd:doPublish xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://usdoj.gov/leisp/lexs/publishdiscover/3.1 ../xsd/lexs/publish-discover/3.1/publish-discover.xsd"
    xmlns:lexspd="http://usdoj.gov/leisp/lexs/publishdiscover/3.1"
    xmlns:lexs="http://usdoj.gov/leisp/lexs/3.1">
    <lexs:PublishMessageContainer>
        <lexs:PublishMessage>
            <lexs:PDMessageMetadata>
            </lexs:PDMessageMetadata>
        </lexs:PublishMessage>
    </lexs:PublishMessageContainer>
</lexspd:doPublish>

      

        
        
        
      

    

The code I'm using to deserialize looks like this:

XmlSerializer xs = new XmlSerializer(typeof(PublishMessageType));
Encoding encode = new UTF8Encoding();

PDWebService lexpdServiceProxy = new PDWebService();
lexpdServiceProxy.Url = "http://59.60.72.12/";

String pdMessageXml = File.ReadAllText(fileName);

DoPublishType doPublishType = new DoPublishType();
MemoryStream publishMsgMemStream = new MemoryStream(encode.GetBytes(pdMessageXml));
doPublishType.PublishMessageContainer = new PublishMessageType[1];
doPublishType.PublishMessageContainer[0] =
   (PublishMessageType)xs.Deserialize(publishMsgMemStream);

      

        
        
        
      

    

And the object I am trying to deserialize also looks like this: (shorthand version)

I tried to add:

[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlRoot("doPublish", Namespace = "http://usdoj.gov/leisp/lexs/publishdiscover/3.1", IsNullable = true)]

      

        
        
        
      

    

To the beginning of the class, I am trying to deserialize too, no luck. I also tried changing the XmlSerializer object to:

XmlRootAttribute xRoot = new XmlRootAttribute();
xRoot.ElementName = "doPublish";
xRoot.Namespace = "http://usdoj.gov/leisp/lexs/publishdiscover/3.1";
xRoot.IsNullable = true;
XmlSerializer xs = new XmlSerializer(typeof(PublishMessageType), xRoot);

      

        
        
        
      

    

This will work, but every type of deserialized object will return null, even if they are all populated in the XML document.

Any help would be great, thanks!
