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.
