Caulking that won't stick!

Caulking that won't stick!
After the THIRD time of silicone caulking the corners in my tub area, I am again forced to remove the caulk because it's coming off. For some reason it isn't sticking.
Is there a secret to using this stuff on tileboard? I've been using tub and tile silicone and have made sure the corners are dry. Please help!

I am using Tub & Tile Caulk from Home Hardware - 100% Acrylic Latex, Mildew Resistant, Waterproof.
Surfaces are clean, says to allow 24 hours before painting (if you want to).

You probably need to switch to a silicone caulk [comes in white or clear] It will adhere a lot better than latex caulk will. It is harder to apply and needs a solvent to clean up with.
