I'd suggest you ask HP for help - if tcpdump also sees only broadcast
traffic, this is probably a case of either

    1) promiscuous mode not working on the NIC (although if the Kingswood
card uses a different chip and driver, that's probably not the
problem)

or

    2) the monitoring port on the switch not getting all traffic through
the switch sent to it

and if it's 2) that's a problem with the switch.
