I had this stupid pain in the ass problem also.  It seems that
/etc/serial.conf sets your ttyS1 as a 16450 instead of 16550A.  Change the
entry in /etc/serial.conf reguarding ttyS1 to 16550A.  I don't know why it
does that.  But it took me a week to debug that stupid stuff.  It never
donned on me to check something like that.  Finally I just did cat
/etc/*|grep ttyS1.  The rest is history.
