Check that the value of `org-agenda-custom-commands' is actually the one
above.  Then run the command `org-agenda' --- you should see this at the
bottom left of the window:

r   Tags (TODO)  :  Read/NEXT
w   Tags (TODO)  :  Write/NEXT
R   Tags (TODO)  :  Read/NEXT|TODO
W   Tags (TODO)  :  Write/NEXT|INPROGRESS

If the "r" key (and its associated command) is not listed in the choice
you have when calling org-agenda, then it's normal that it does nothing.

Double-check for the value org `org-agenda-custom-commands' before doing
C-c a
