I believe this is due to the way the box model works. Margin needs something to push off of, because it's on the outside of the element. Padding is instead a part of the element, so that space is always there. Though why margin would sometimes work for the first element, and sometimes not, I couldn't say. Seems like, in theory, that should never work. I always err on the safe side and assume it won't.
