chapter detection happens in the conversion pipeline well before either epub or mobi specific code is invoked. So that's not the issue.
First check: When you say you get a blank TOC in MOBI do you mean an TOC within the book's contents, or the metadata TOC (i.e. the TOC accessed by presisng the menu button on a kindle or the TOC button in the calibre viewer) |

Does it make a difference if you try checking the box 'Force use of auto-generated TOC' on the Convert | Table of Contents page?
If your headings are all defined with <h3> tags then a simple //h:h3 should suffice in the 'Detect chapters at' box. |

the next thing to do is post the job log from the mobi conversion, you can get it by clicking the rotating spinner in the bottom right corner.

Interesting, nothing leaps out at me in the log. Can you open a ticket and attach the LIT file, I'll look at it when I have a moment.
