 I'm not entirely certain to be honest, as I was using the ob_start()
 function incorrectly, which complicated things.

 What seems to have fixed things though was changing the 'hide_empty' => 1,
 to 'hide_empty' => false.

 Here's my working $args:

     $atts = array(
         'child_of'            => $id,
         'current_category'    => 0,
         'depth'               => 0,
         'echo'                => 0,
         'exclude'             => '',
         'exclude_tree'        => '',
         'feed'                => '',
         'feed_image'          => '',
         'feed_type'           => '',
         'hide_empty'          => false,
         'hide_title_if_empty' => false,
         'hierarchical'        => true,
         'order'               => 'ASC',
         'orderby'             => 'name',
         'separator'           => '',
         'show_count'          => 0,
         'show_option_all'     => '',
         'show_option_none'    => __( 'No categories' ),
         'style'               => 'list',
         'taxonomy'            => 'category',
         'title_li'            => '',
         'use_desc_for_title'  => 1,
     );

 Hope that helps.
