Well, I don't really understand what the problem is (but I imagine
someone will have the real answer). My two thoughts are that either
there is a problem with the tags you included in mne_forward_solution
(mne_do_forward_solution is designed to avoid the complexities of
these commands), or whatever procedure you used to generate this
source space may be not interpretable by mne_forward_solution. An
alternative which would work, would be to generate a "grid source
space" then to do the inverse solution by removing the uninteresting
dipoles from the forward model and calculate the inverse solution in
Matlab.
