Could it be that you have multiple versions of the font installed  
(e.g., an older Type 1 or TrueType font that doesn't have OpenType  
features, in addition to the newer OTF font)? If so, it can be  
difficult to predict which xetex will find and use.

What is the complete report you get from OpenType-info.tex for this  
font?
