No windows pdflib experience here, but try taking out the application/pdf header. Then you can see any error message from php. Those would blow the pdf format, and cause a blank page or a broken icon. Also I've found that once that happens IE remembers the ppage is pdf, and you have to close and reopen the browser to switch content types.
