Default down shifting

I have a Boulevard C50T. Sometimes at a stop when down shifting, the bike gets stuck in neutral and I am not able to shift down to first unless I release the clutch. Any idea what's wrong? or is it something I may be doing? I'll be riding along in 3rd or 4th and come to a red ligh. I pull in the clutch and coast to the light. When I stop I try to shift down to 1st - that's when I can't get past neutral. Any advice is appreciated
