You probably have the option set to only read metadata from filenames.
Kovid answered the mystery in the post before yours. Even though you are using ebook-meta from the command line the settings in the GUI still hold true. Open Calibre and go to Preferences - Add/Save - Adding Books tab and make sure the box by Read Metadata only from file name is unchecked.
