There's nothing unusual about that. The sftp utility started you off in your home directory, and then you "cd"ed to the upload subfolder. But a URI is always the full path, from the root directory.

You could also specify the URI as "sftp://host.example.com:10022/~/upload/", with "~" being the standard Unix abbreviation for "my home directory."
