I think the reason comes from the fact that different default header args
exist depending on the way the code is eval'ed.

See the contents of the following vars:

- `org-babel-default-header-args' for source blocks
- `org-babel-default-inline-header-args' for inline source blocks
- `org-babel-default-lob-header-args' for `#+call' lines

So, you clearly needs to add explicit values for some of your header arguments
in your call line.

Best regards,
Seb
