Nios stops responding to interrupts

Using Nios(3.2), Nios32@30mhz with some user logic modules in the C4. The simplest possible ISR will works a random number of times (< 30) and then stop working. The IRQ signal from the user logic is...

My example was stripped down to isolate the behavior. My real code does clear the interrupt condition inside the ISR, and it does exhibit the masking behavior whether I use printf or not.

I thought that the system ISRs (spurious, CWP overflow, etc) all used high priority IRQ#s below 16. All my user ISR#s are above these and above the uart IRQ#s, and so should not be blocked. Do you mean that I have to do a nr_setirqenable(1); inside my user ISR to allow even higher priority ISRs?

Where do I look to see the IRQ# for this timer?

Thanks
