That sounds like initial SAs are negotiated OK but there's an issue with
child SAs. I've had that happen quite a lot with Windows ikev2 where it
was unhappy about dh groups.

iked.conf and (if available) the cisco config might give clues, as might
logs (warnings logs on the cisco side probably most helpful, I find iked
logs are usualy either not enough or excruciatingly noisy depending on
verbosity).
