Works here for simple files.
M-: (org-odt-convert "file.ods" "csv")
Executing libreoffice4.0 --headless --convert-to csv --outdir /home/kjambunathan/ /home/kjambunathan/file.ods
convert /home/kjambunathan/file.ods -> /home/kjambunathan//file.csv using Text - txt - csv (StarCalc)
Exported to /home/kjambunathan/file.csv
"/home/kjambunathan/file.csv"
AFAIK, if you can save as CSV from LO UI, then it should work from the
command line.
Start with a simple file and isolate the issue.
