I don't mean to paint an ugly picture, it just is what it is. I've found some Dendrobiums to seed like crazy and some just refuse. I've never messed with Bulbos.
The timing (age of flowers) can also come into play. I try to pollinate a flower once it has fully opened but still fresh. Pollen age doesn't seem to matter as much but it may. Sorry so vague.
