I would've guessed at something to do with the FTP server being weird but if
other clients are successfully retrieving accurate directory lists, it has to be
the client. Hmm. :\
Perhaps look at the "command history" of one of the working FTP clients, to see
what they do that gets the accurate listing? It sounds like you might be missing
an important step (/command), somewhere.

Alternatively, perhaps you're mis-handling (or just entirely missing) a command
sent from the server? Might be worth looking into.
