Are you using a chainloader?

What you posted below seems like grub 1 syntax. The latest Ubuntu comes with grub 2. Here is what I have in /etc/grub.d/40_custom (after the required bits):
menuentry "FreeBSD 9-Current amd64" {
set root=(hd0,3)
chainloader +1
}
menuentry "FreeBSD 7-Stable i386" {
set root=(hd0,3)
chainloader +1
}


You should, in my experience; something like that in grub's menu.lst
or grub.cfg:

----------------------------------------
title fbsd-b64 -- chainloader (hd0,2,a)
   root (hd0,2,a)
   makeactive
   chainloader +1

title fbsd-b32 -- chainloader (hd0,3,a)
   root (hd0,3,a)
   makeactive
   chainloader +1
----------------------------------------
