Stuck with Gum

What's worse than getting a piece a gum stuck on the bottom of your shoe? Getting a black gumball.  Try as I may, I cannot render this gumball machine to show it's true colors.  For some reason the light isn't getting through the glass sphere.  So I am left with black gumballs.  What? I thought maybe it was a positioning error, like the position of the light, the background, or the sphere.

But then after tweeking the position of things, I changed the dynamics around and saw some of the gumballs coming through the glass, which makes me think it's not a positioning issue.

So I hid the glass from the scene and rendered, and got the illumination I wanted.  But why oh why won't this thing work!? I think I'm going to have to hang this one up for now.
