Hi Andrew.
I experienced something similar for the autodock_plugin.
http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Autodock_plugin
During my trials, I notified two things for autodock.
It did not like "funny atom names" or "Alternative configuration"
Could this be a case for your protein / ligand?
I don't know if is the same for the APBS plugin, but you could try?
http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Autodock_plugin#Example_1_-_Rename_of_funny_atom_names
Some of the "preparation" scripts for both plugins are coming from the same
research groups.
I think they both use: pdb2pqr or something.
Best
