Do you have setHasOptionsMenu(true) in your code somewhere for this particular fragment you want the menu in?

Something like... 

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setHasOptionsMenu(true);
}

Your fragment must be told that it has an options menu otherwise it won't try to inflate one.

Documentation: setHasOptionsMenu(boolean hasMenu)
