I would say that it could only be a couple of things:

1) The GPO setting is targeted to the Computer Configuration, not the User
Configuration
2) The ACL for the GPO is not correct

It can't be block policy inheritance, since the domain GPOs are coming down.
There is a way that block policy inheritance is in place, only if the domain
GPO has no over ride set.

So, I would check 1 and 2 first, then check block policy inheritance and no
override on the GPOs in question.
