That looks correct - so most likely the player's hitbox code isn't getting called or the hitbox test is failing for some reason. There's another debug command called cast_ray that visualizes traces. I'd probably put a breakpoint in there and use it to cast a ray that should hit but misses and then try to step through the player collision code at that point using breakpoints.
If the player's testhitboxes is not being called for some reason you can always force it by adding FSOLID_CUSTOMRAYTEST on the players.
