Use a tool like the SAML tracer plugin for Firefox to examine the SAML
being sent from the SP to the IdP requesting the logout (assuming it is a
front channel logout). Or turn on debug logging with the IdP to see the
actual logout request sent by the SP.

The SP may not be signing the logout request.

If that is the case you can configure the IdP to not require signed logout
requests from that particular SP. There was a thread between myself and
Scott C about this last month.

Of course if you can cause the SP to sign the logout request that would be
best.
