Are you sure your expansion board is based on the "classical" UART
(8250 or 16550) ? Many add-on cards require specific modules.

This will not work on dom0 if the serial port is already shared, but
you can try it when no domU is running :

$ for x in 0 1 2 3 4 ; do setserial /dev/ttyS$x ; done
/dev/ttyS0, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x03f8, IRQ: 4
/dev/ttyS1, UART: unknown, Port: 0x02f8, IRQ: 3
/dev/ttyS2, UART: unknown, Port: 0x03e8, IRQ: 4
/dev/ttyS3, UART: unknown, Port: 0x02e8, IRQ: 3
/dev/ttyS4: No such file or directory
# (this machine has only one physical port)

My 2 cents,
