CP0_CAUSE reflects the real-time inputs to the CPU, not the state of
those inputs at the time the interrupt was detected, nor is it
sensitive to the "mask" bits in the status register.

So it's perfectly possible to find no active bits in CP0_CAUSE which
account for your interrupt.  But it does all depend how your interrupt
controller works...
