When your fold method is indent, the folding only works when the actual indentation in your file matches the configured indentation. For example, Vim's default indentation for CSS is 8 spaces; but if you're editing a CSS file with, say, 4 spaces of indentation, the folding won't work. In this case you'll need to configure the indentation to match (with shiftwidth and softtabstop).

Hope that helps.
