What is the object containing the media? Media is dependant on scale, 
larger objects need a less dense media to get the same effect.
Also, for this effect, you don't need emission or absorption media. And 
you should specify samples and intervals, the defaults don't work well, 
especially for scattering media. Oh, and make sure the container object 
has "hollow" specified.
