Sorry to get away from Ken's questions, but I wonder why the 25mm doesn't work with the 45TSE. The wides and wide zooms make sense that it would be incompatible: the lens won't focus on anything because the farthest focus point would be inside the front lens element, most likely. The 50/1.0 probably has too big a rear element and either vignettes horribly or won't actually fit inside the tube. But for what reason does the 45TSE get left out in the cold??
Ken, short of trying it with a different body to see if it works, I don't have any other advice than has already been suggested. I'd say something is shot. Send it back.
