The most common one it that the channel decoder simply didn't lock due to wrong tuning parameters. Are you sure your initial config file is right? Even a wrong value for i.e the guard interval prevents the decoder from locking. Some drivers ignore these values so you can't be sure from the fact that another card works. You might try w_scan. If this doesn't help. please examine the kernel log again.
