Some ideas:

First, reset vuescan options to defaults (File|Default options) just in case some 
option was inadvertently set.

Then try setting Media Type to Image (which I think will negate film type setting) and 
Color balance to White Balance.

Some time ago vuescan had a bug when white point was set to 0, which I read was fixed. 
 Just in case, try setting white point to 0.001.

What Monitor/File color space color spaces have you set?
