It's something Nagios does by default.  If a service check fails, it 
will check the host.  If the host check fails, it will send out a host 
notification but suppress the service notification.

By what you've said, I don't think that's your problem.  I've noticed 
that you have used a lot of templates (inheritance) in your configs.  
You could try simplifying it but just setting up a contact, a contact 
group, a host, a service and a time period but don't use templates.  If 
that basic test works the problem may lie with one of your templates.
