  You should probably re-post this question to the r-sig-mixed-models
mailing list, which specializes (as you would guess) in mixed models.
 
  I'm a little suspicious of your random effects specification.  Are there
really random effects at all four levels?  i.e., are there four separate
hierarchical levels at which the predictors vary?

  It's hard to diagnose this problem without a reproducible example.
Is your model fit otherwise sensible?
