Have you added "G29" (Start auto level) command to your "Start G-code" section in the machine settings in your slicing software? This supposed to be the next line after "G28" (Home).

I am having sort of the same issue. I got auto leveling to work fine. When I tried to print my filament would not stick to the bed. But if I tried to print from extruder 2 it stuck really well. Seeing only the color of the pla being different, I swapped my rolls of pla. I had white in extruder 1 and black in extruder 2, white was not sticking at all and black was sticking really well. So I put black in 1 and white in 2. I expected white to now stick, but black still stuck and white still would not stick. Only think I can think of is something with the white filament.

I found a work around for now, I print the first 2 layers in black then switch to white. The white wont stick to the bed but sticks great to the black layers

Maybe you can enable the baby step on your printer.
It will be more helpful.
