The emulator is not in 'Discovery' state. I've usually seen this when there have been modifications to nfcd that changed the init sequence of the device. Another thing could be a triggered timeout in the test script. Does it work if yo run the test's steps by hand?

Thanks for the info, Thomas. It should be related to Bug 970263.
