You said back in the beginning, when you took the cables off, the voltage came up. Thats because it took the load off the alternator, making it easier to turn, which caused the belt to stop slipping, causing the voltage to go up to where it was supposed to be !!! DHOOOOOOOOOOOO It's always obvious in hind sight ! 
Makes perfect sense now, although I still don't know why you didn't smell burning rubber or find rubber powder with the belt slipping that bad ??
